Screen Cornwall are supporting the Filmarket Hub platform and Edinburgh International Film Festival, to launch Celtic Screen Talent Showcase - a virtual pitch event dedicated to feature films and scripted series in development by talent from the six Celtic nations.

This brand new initiative aims to discover high-quality unproduced projects from the Celtic regions and match them with leading companies in the international industry. Executives from CrossDay Productions, Curzon, Gaumont, Endor Productions, Great Point Media, Head Gear Films, NBCUniversal International Scripted and Red Arrow Studios are confirmed to attend.

The event will take place online on the 5th and the 6th of August as part of the industry activity of the Edinburgh International Film Festival. Day one will be dedicated to feature films and day two will showcase scripted series.

Submissions are now open for projects either at the script stage or with some finance secured, from Cornwall, as well as the other Celtic regions.
