Organised by The Space

his webinar is for arts organisations and artists interested in understanding more about what it takes to make work for TV or radio. We know broadcast channels aren’t easy to access, or available to all, but those who do secure a commission have a fantastic opportunity to reach new audiences at scale.

In this webinar we want to demystify the process and what it means to create work for a broadcaster.

We’ll cover:

* What’s it like to work with a broadcaster?
* How do artists and organisations adapt their creative practice to deliver for broadcast?
* What opportunities exist in TV, radio and related platforms?

You’ll hear from:

Natalie Woolman, Senior Producer at The Space, will be joined by guests who’ll share their experience, including those on commissions supported by The Space. And we’ll have plenty of time for questions.
