Submit to Meetmarket
MeetMarket at Sheffield Doc/Fest is a unique pitching initiative which uses online systems to match-make documentary makers’ most innovative project ideas with UK and international buyers for one-to-one meetings in a fully supportive environment.
Submit your project online, along with one-page treatments and a one-minute trailer teaser clip, in advance of Doc/Fest, allowing buyers to view your submissions of innovative documentary ideas. The application process is fully online
Selected projects have project information and trailer available on our (password protected) website for the commissioners and other executives to review before the MeetMarket.
From this, they select which projects they would like to discuss in one-to-one meetings at MeetMarket.
