encourage new and innovative routes for bringing filmmakers, funders and commissioning editors
together. As the leading resource for documentary filmmakers in the UK, we would look forward

addition to the world of documentary projects where almost invariably, the funding and programme
ideas are controlled by the broadcasters. I wish them and their investors the very best of luck in
the ever expanding digital world. Their success will depend on the quality and variety of the
programmes - their pilots looked very promising - and I look forward to seeing the finished product."
