Connector: One Stop Doc Shop

The One Stop Doc Shop aims to encourage and support an inclusive array of novice woman / woman-identifying / non-binary filmmakers into the documentary film world.

The process of developing, producing or directing your first film can be overwhelming, especially if you’re based outside the M25 and don’t have any connections in the industry. Myriad courses are available but often they can be costly and aren’t always inclusive.

With the support of Ffilm Cymru and BFI NETWORK Wales’ Connector Fund, this online platform will provide a free, comprehensive overview of the documentary filmmaking process from start to finish. It will include podcast interviews with high-profile directors, live Q & A sessions with established industry producers, film funders and festival experts, and a series of blogs that will guide you through the creative process from finding your story to the business of getting it seen.

One Stop Doc Shop is a Wheesht Films Production, made possible with the support of the Screen Alliance Wales, Ffilm Cymru Wales and BFI NETWORK with funding from the National Lottery.

The series is available to download on all major podcast platforms.
