FILM & TELEVISION
CORNWALL HAS LONG BEEN A DESIRED LOCATION FOR FILM AND TELEVISION CREWS ACROSS THE WORLD.
ur dramatic countryside and coastal landscapes and our close-knit communities often attract global attention. There is, however, another side to the region’s success in this industry - namely its world-leading educational courses and rich pool of homegrown, cutting-edge creative talent.
For more than 50 years, The School of Film and Television at Falmouth University has been a world-leader for students from across the world learning their craft in the film and television industries. Leading facilities and equipment have cemented the establishment’s reputation, and Falmouth’s alumni can be found working across every part of the expansive global media network.
There are also a number of establishments and organisations set up to nurture and support Cornwall’s creative talent, including Screen Cornwall, which offers anything from location services to local talent development.
By providing opportunities for development and growth in this area, expanding an already comprehensive network of cast, crew and technical talent, it is helping to shape Cornwall’s continued success in the sector.
Its ‘New Creatives’ talent development scheme, supported by BBC Arts and Arts Council England, offers commissioning opportunities for people aged 16-30 to get their work heard within the industry.
The region also nurtures independent and artistic talent, continuing a long tradition of supporting artistic and pioneering communities. BAFTA-award winning Mark Jenkin and his film Bait, were celebrated in the industry for adopting a unique and markedly Cornish approach to storytelling.
