Description

The BFI is launching a new fund to support the creation of distinct, high-quality content for children and young audiences to be broadcast on UK Public Service Broadcaster services.

Assigned up to £57 million from the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) for a three year pilot, the Fund aims to stimulate the creation of high-quality content for audiences up to the age of 18 that entertains, informs and reflects their experiences of growing up across the UK today.

The Fund will support original programming, in both live-action and animation, and across genres including education, fiction and drama, arts and culture, factual and religion.

It will offer production funding for projects which have secured a broadcast commitment from a UK Public Service Broadcaster and development funding will also be available to support new voices and emerging producers.

We require a freelancer or an agency to develop and deliver the launch and comprehensive UK-wide promotional strategy to roll out this new Fund.

Further details of the requirements, including key areas of work and priorities, are included within the invitation to tender document.
