In March 2010 Peter Salmon (Director BBC North) announced that 5live would be ring fencing a £40,000 production fund for Northern radio indies, in a bid to give the region a creative kick start, ahead of the station’s relocation to MediaCityUK in 2011.
But how are companies across the North going to make the most of this opportunity? It’s essential that production companies get under the skin of the station to ensure that their ideas fulfill 5live’s needs, but what if you’ve never produced content for 5live before?
With this in mind, Vision+Media, Screen Yorkshire and Northern Film and Media have organised an exclusive event with BBC Radio 5live to ensure you get the information and support you need.
5live and the BBC’s Marketing and Audience Team will be at Vision+Media on Thursday 29 July to talk exclusively to indies and professional freelance producers about the fund, 5live and its audience.
Independent radio production companies or professional freelance radio producers, with a track record of producing high quality broadcast content should email a copy of their CV or company profile to lynnk@visionandmedia.co.uk in order to register their interest for the event.
