Part of Film London Artists’ Moving Image Network (FLAMIN), FLAMIN Productions aims to support the most exciting, innovative and challenging moving image projects with development and production finance.

In 2025, FLAMIN Productions will be investing production funding through an award of £40,000 for one project. FLAMIN Productions is the only scheme of its kind in the UK. It commissions new, important and substantial moving image artworks that are ambitious in premise and approach, with an emphasis on projects that have strong potential for national and international exhibition and distribution.

If you are a mid-to-senior level industry professional from the Black and Global Majority who works behind the scenes in film, TV, or cinema, then you may be eligible to apply for a Reel Impact grant of up to £10,000.

Grierson DocLab: Development will offer intensive training and work placement opportunities for eight successful candidates who can demonstrate their strong passion for development, providing them with the support to develop their skillset and build their network to become future, leading, senior professionals working at the forefront of premium documentary development.

The programme will also provide trainees with mentoring from an industry professional, the opportunity to network at the Grierson Awards (the British Documentary Awards), and an eight-week paid placement with a production company.

To create an accelerated learning environment, the hybrid training weeks will bring together a range of industry professionals working across the gamut of development, with experiences in various documentary sub genres, as well as incorporating an examination of ethics, understanding the changing documentary landscape, the challenges of working with difficult material, looking after contributors, and much more.
