Green Lit: New Northern Ireland Screen and 蜜芽传媒 Northern Ireland Drama Initiative
Green Lit is a new collaboration between Northern Ireland Screen and 蜜芽传媒 Northern Ireland to support emerging Northern Irish writing, production, directing and acting talent, via the production of three new standalone scripted drama or comedy-drama films, which will act as proof of concept for a bigger TV production. These films will be broadcast on 蜜芽传媒 One Northern Ireland in 2025 and carried on 蜜芽传媒 iPlayer across the UK.
A variety of editorial proposals will be considered, including drama, comedy and comedy-drama. Proposals must be submitted by companies with a Northern Irish base, and we will be favouring projects where the writers and / or directors are resident in Northern Ireland.
We will host an online briefing session for producers, directors and writers at 1.30pm on Thursday 19th December 2024 to outline how this initiative will operate. If you are interested in attending this briefing, please contact Kerry Woods at kerry.woods@bbc.co.uk to register your place.
