ONLY NATURAL FOR SPONSORS WITH WILD IDEAS TO SUPPORT THIS FILM FESTIVAL

Wildscreen is a UK-based charity working globally to increase the public’s awareness and appreciation of the natural world. The Wildscreen Festival boasts a position as the world’s most prestigious and influential event for the wildlife, earth science and environmental film-making industries. It was founded by Sir Peter Scott in 1982 in association with WWF UK. The festival’s aims are to increase the diversity, quality and quantity of wildlife and environmental films and provide film-makers with the opportunity to learn or develop film-making skills. Ultimately Wildscreen hopes to promote conservation through wildlife film-making. It is the world’s largest and most prestigious festival of its kind, attracting nearly 900 delegates ranging from established and renowned film-makers to broadcasters to suppliers. The week-long festival comprises a diverse programme including a training school, seminars, masterclasses, screenings of films from around the world, a trade show and many opportunities to share ideas and make new contacts. The centrepiece of every Wildscreen is the bestowing of its Panda Awards – the wildlife film industry’s equivalent of the Oscars. There are numerous sponsorship and branding opportunities available.   Contact: Colin Butfield, Festival Director. Tel.: 0117 915 7101.
