Last month at Glasgow Short Film Festival, Screen Academy Scotland co-hosted a panel discussion called Writing Diversity with GSFF and Sky Drama. Chaired by Lizzie Gray, Script Executive at Sky Arts, the session featured screenwriters and filmmakers who have taken a variety of routes to successfully bring their diverse scripts to screen. The panel included the team from Purple Geko a production company which developed a successful web series before being commissioned by Sky Drama, Katie White who wrote the award winning independent drama short Middle Man, Raisah Ahmed whose short Magda had its world premiere at GSFF15 and Anwar Boulifa whose A Short Guide to Re-entry was seen at GSFF16 International Competition. Many thanks to Sky Drama and GSFF for their support!
