There needs to be a TV series that shoots for 52 weeks of the years. A training ground for real working-class producers, writers, and directors. Amplifying diverse voices and bringing authentic stories to the screen. F**k it, I’ll make it! Anyone wanna help??

Met with an industry “professional” today who, upon hearing I'm from the north, responded with utter disdain. Despite not reviewing any of my work, they labeled me an inexperienced director What I’ve done as an “inexperienced” filmmaker #workingclass #film #northern

From a working-class background, no industry connections. First in my family to go to uni for a "low value" degree. It connected me to the people from different social classes. Ended up in Hollywood directing 3 films. The arts should be for everyone not just Rishi & friends!

Hands up who took a 'low value degree' & wouldn't be where you are without it. Hands up who thinks EVERY young person should have the opportunity to do the same. Hands up who thinks higher education shouldn't be reduced to 'produces high earners'.

The catch 22 of being an indie film director. I can’t do high end TV until I’ve done smaller budget TV. But, I can’t get smaller budget TV shows because I’ve done features so, perceived to be too slow to do episodic tv.

He’s being a smart filmmaker. A theatrical release is easier to keep an audience watching the whole film. They’ve paid to see the film, traveled to the cinema, bought popcorn. If you don’t like the film you’ve streamed, find something new! Two different entities.

@ThisisWalter89 @ThisIsAGoodFilm @jonnbridges @Afrofilmviewer My question is more…Is there is a snobbery towards genre vs personal dramas. I do see your point Ben that there is small pockets of private money for genre (mainly horror) . But, how do you make high end genre films focused towards a cinema release without going to America?

@EmilyEverdee @leessii I feel It’s the same for working class directors. In 6 years I’ve worked on lots of projects that have not happened for various reasons. But still had to pay out for development costs, train fares, meeting after meeting with no support & made zero money for my time. Its Tough
