Film Birmingham will be present and representing the region at Focus 2019, the international meeting place for the creative screen industries.
Following a highly successful 2018 event, FOCUS, The Meeting Place for International Production will return to the Business Design Centre London on 3/4 December 2019 for its fifth edition. The event will remain completely free to attend for industry professionals.
Birmingham city council’s film and TV office will be representing the city and the West Midlands at the 2-day event, engaging with international production companies on how they can maximise their use of Birmingham’s filming locations, local crews and production services. Film Birmingham will be sharing a stand (L8 #FilmingInEngland) with Film Offices UK and Creative England. During the Filming in England ‘Happy Wine and Cheese Hour’ at 14:00 – 15:00 each day, event attendees are invited to liaise with Film Birmingham representatives while sampling regional wine and cheeses.
FOCUS is aimed at all the creative screen industries – including film, TV, advertising, animation and interactive – and is the only UK trade event where attendees can meet with content makers, film commissions, production services and locations providers from over 70 countries. Each December, the industry’s key players converge at FOCUS, transforming two days of meetings, networking events and seminars into deals and lasting business relationships. Over 150 expert speakers will also address the key opportunities and challenges concerning the production industry today.
