[Commlist] Making It Real: A Policy Programme for UK Documentary Film

We are delighted to announce that Making It Real: A Policy Programme for 
UK Documentary Film, the new report from the UK Feature Docs project, is 
published today.



The report is now available to download and read here: 
https://ukfd.org.uk/policy-reports/.



Making It Real follows the UK Feature Docs’ previous report, Keeping it 
Real: Towards a Documentary Film Policy for the UK, published last 
summer. Based on a survey of 200 leading UK nonfiction producers and 
directors, Keeping it Real outlined a chronic lack of funding, support 
and coordination at the heart of the UK’s feature documentary film 
sector. This new report represents the sector’s response to those 
original findings in the light of global events including the COVID-19 
pandemic and the Black Lives Matter movement. It ultimately comprises a 
new industrial strategy for documentary based on inclusivity, 
sustainability and the creation of optimum conditions for success at 
home and internationally.



If you have requested a hard copy of both reports, they will be posted 
to you this month.
