I believe that there are members of Nairaland who are already into the production of films or have buddies who are interested. And if they are in the UK, here are the opportunities for those who are really serious:

SCRIBES 2

A partnership between Arista Development, BBC Films and Capitol Films Production, one of the UK Film Council-funded ‘Super Slates’, SCRIBES 2 is a screenplay development programme spread over a period of eight months, designed to fit around the working lives of participants, which gives eight Black and Minority Ethnic screenwriters (we call them SCRIBES), a combination of intensive project development, general screenwriting training and industry experience. Highlights include an intensive six-day residential script workshop at the Hotel Monteconero in Sirolo, Italy, detailed project feedback from BBC Films and Capitol Films Production executives, mentoring relationships with selected Capitol Films Production Super Slate producers (who are Cuba Pictures, Element Films, Feel Films, Samuelson Productions and Tiger Aspect Pictures) and industry placements within the SCRIBES partner companies, each custom-designed to meet the skills needs of individual SCRIBES.

Each SCRIBE will develop two projects, one original screenplay and one outline, through the programme. The programme culminates with an exclusive "first-look" deal between the ARISTA SCRIBES' developed projects, Capitol Films Production and BBC Films. If Capitol Films Production and/or BBC Films then decide to take any SCRIBES project further, each project will be optioned for a guaranteed fee of £2,000 and a revised draft commissioned for a guaranteed fee of £10,000. click on www.aristadevelopment.co.uk for more information.

Too bad. Oh well, it's best to take your screenplay and try to produce it!
