Reception ‘I loved finding out that my 6 year old could enjoy a foreign language film.’ ‘I had never been in this venue before today but I found it very enjoyable. I would say the only improvement would be to advertise more so other people can enjoy it like I did.’ “The mature attitude. I didn’t feel patronized and was spoken to as an equal.”
Challenges • Lack of time • Lack of funding for delivery of Projects • Marketing to new audiences • Diversity of Future Producers • Coherence of focus
Longevity of the project For the Future Producers… • Career development • Increased self esteem • Peer networks. For the Watershed… • New energy to the programme • New audiences • Additional funding in 2013*
Imagine you wanted to set-up a project like Future Producers… Which Cultural venue in your city could you work with? Who would you ask to be involved as mentors? Who might fund it? Where would you recruit the young people? What type of events might they organise? You have 10 minutes to think of a mini pitch to present back to the group. Go!
