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 short 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
For more information on MeetMarket 2008 and to see those who were selected to pitch, go here.
Submissions are open until Friday September 4th 2009 for documentary projects in development with international appeal. Projects do not need to have any financing already secured and can be at any stage from early development to rough cut. Producers can be from anywhere in the world and we welcome international submissions.
Projects can also be in any genre or format of documentary/factual, from factual entertainment through to art/installation documentaries. We especially welcome cross-platform projects (in 2008 we had 7 out of 53) and this year will have even more devoted cross-platform decision-makers across the whole Doc/Fest marketplace
Remember, for more information, and tips on preparing your application, please look here, and if you have any queries about applying, please email us - otherwise, we look forward to seeing your application.
