We are doubling our investment in new talent in Scotland to £1.2 million with the creation of Talent Builder - a bold new programme featuring six integrated initiatives designed to develop the next generation of Scottish filmmaking talent and increase creative origination from Scotland.
Designed to support Scotland-based writers, directors and producers working in film, Talent Builder - alongside GMAC’s successful and continuing Little Pictures programme - offers a clear and comprehensive pathway from early-stage through to the completion of a first feature film script. The initiative will focus on identifying and cultivating new and emerging voices in Scottish cinema, helping them develop the skills, connections and confidence needed to thrive in the industry.
This new approach to film talent development in Scotland will run for the next five years to 2030/21, in line with the wider Screen Scotland strategy.
