Filmmaker Mixer + SCENE Shorts Announcement

Connect, pitch, and network with Manchester's filmmaking community at this Film mixer, presented by Screen Manchester and the Queer Filmmakers Network.

The evening centres on a speed-networking exercise designed to get filmmakers and creatives talking to people they haven't met yet. Fancy putting yourself out there? Jump on the mic for a rapid-fire 30-second slot to pitch yourself, your project, or both, then take the conversation further during the informal networking session that follows.

We'll also be presenting the Audience Award for the most-loved short from the SCENE North Shorts Showcase, celebrating the best emerging LGBTQ+ filmmaking from across the North of England.

Stick around after: the mixer leads straight into the festival's Closing Party.
