A festival of new, creative talent: what GOODBADMADNESS is all about!
The entertainment industry is a difficult beast to conquer at the best of times. But during and post-pandemic, it's a whole other game. Creative grads across the country have missed out on their showcasing opportunities, which usually connect them with established industry professionals.
In short, it's been pretty sh*t for those starting out in the industry... there's no point beating around the bush. We've spent over a year talking about the struggles and issues, now we think it's time to DO something about it.
So, we've developed GOODBADMADNESS: A FESTIVAL OF NEW TALENT to provide opportunity, inspiration, and resources to help the young creative generation.
We're creating a ALL DAY FESTIVAL that will:
- Support creative grads and others whose opportunities were stifled by the pandemic.
- Provide a platform for new talent
- Connect aspirational creatives with industry professionals
- Provide informative and helpful career advice
- Inspire young creatives to create their own work
- Create a space for young creatives to connect, learn and showcase their talent, twisting old-school networking GoodBadMad style!
What to expect:
- Panels
- Performances
- Screenings
- Mentoring 1-1 sessions
- Talks
- Stalls/Pop-ups
- Pitch competition
- Networking
- Party!
Industry Professionals attending the event to support young creatives include:
- Forbes 30 Under 30 Honoree Ella Greenwood's 'Broken Flames Productions'
- Hartshorn-Hook Productions
- Masterclass
- Theatrecraft
- Female Film Club
- Zyrenka Cox : Casting Director
- Stevee Davies : Casting Director

And more to be announced!
