The C21 Script Competition is a great opportunity for filmmakers because it offers them a chance to have their work presented at Content London. This year they are also looking at work that might make sense in episodes online, and then presented as longform on TV - this will be of particular interest to our film makers involved with UPstream and Film London Labs.Jordan McGarry, Film London Head of Talent Development and Production
