Channel 4 Pitch Competition Announced

The Channel 4 Sheffield Pitch Competition is back, to help you get funding and guidance for your documentary idea.

Experienced Assistant Producers and up-and-coming Directors are invited to pitch an idea to a panel of TV Executives, including Channel 4 Commissioning Editors.

The winner, chosen at Doc/Fest in November, will make a 24 minute film for Channel 4’s documentary new talent strand, First Cut. The winner will spend 10-weeks at a production company to make the film.

You must be UK-based, be able to take up a freelance placement with a production company of Channel 4’s choice and have yet to receive a Director credit on a network primetime documentary film.

For more information about taking part in this year's pitch, email Jen Botting jbotting@channel4.co.uk.
