Mammoth Screen returned to Yorkshire to shoot ‘Wuthering

Heights’ after fi lming ‘Lost in Austen’ in the region. Screen

Yorkshire invested in both productions through its Production

Fund creating jobs for crew, regional production spend as

well as securing positions for a number of regional trainees.

“We have a very successful and ongoing relationship with

Screen Yorkshire and the Yorkshire region, most recently with

our critically acclaimed production ‘Lost in Austen’ which was

shot and partially post produced in the region. The wonderful

diversity of landscape and locations all within a reasonable

travelling distance made Yorkshire the natural home

for fi lming our new adaptation of ‘Wuthering Heights’.”

“Without Screen Yorkshire’s investment and support, the project

would not have been possible. This, coupled with the stunning

locations on offer, meant Yorkshire was clearly the place to

base the production. Screen Yorkshire’s valuable investment and

production support along with the fantastic crew and facilities

in the region enabled us to deliver a production of which we are

extremely proud.”

“I think one of the great things about fi lming in Yorkshire is the

crew-base, thanks to Yorkshire TV and Granada over the last

20-30 years there is a really good bank of technicians. However,

the fi nance of any movie is critical and you need to fi lm where you

can get the best deal, there are many advantages of Yorkshire

but in the end the combination of it being the real place along

with a decent contribution from Screen Yorkshire and its other

support was invaluable.”

The fi lm adaptation of the cult book, ‘The Damned United’ by

David Peace, about Brian Clough’s legendary 44 days at Leeds

United in the 1970s, was one of Screen Yorkshire’s major

production investments in 2008. Produced by Left Bank

Pictures, the fi lm went on to achieve box offi ce success

and major media coverage.

“I would like to take this

opportunity to thank everyone

at Screen Yorkshire for all

their support and co-operation

during our time in North

Yorkshire. The people of York

and the surrounding areas

have not only made fi lming

‘Crusoe’ possible but also a

pleasure. It was great to be

back in Yorkshire – where the

crew are highly professional

and the locations stunning.

Screen Yorkshire’s Production

Liaison team provided us with

crew and locations support

before and during our shoot,

and helped to make our

experience in Yorkshire truly

amazing. I cannot wait

to come back.”

LUCY BASNETT-MACGUIRE // ProducerHARDY PICTURES // Channel 4 // 1066

“To take the audience back to

1066 we needed a landscape

that was as wild, epic and

varied as our story which

encompassed everything from

beach landings to forest

battles. The Lord of the Rings

had New Zealand, but we had

Yorkshire and it gave us

everything we needed and

more. We even found an

existing wooden bridge that

with minimal modifi cation

stood in for the famous

Stamford Bridge where the

Anglo Saxons defeated the

Viking invaders. Yorkshire is a

great place to fi lm, so good in

fact that we are coming back

for our next production.”

“This is the fi rst time I’ve worked in the North of England, and I

just love the unfailingly committed and talented crew, who march

back up the sodden fi eld after fi ve hours of sterling work, every

one of them smiling – and bang on time for lunch, too.”

RED RIDINGThree fi lms on different formats by three different directors

shooting at the same time throughout Yorkshire. That was the

challenge for the producers of the ‘Red Riding Trilogy’ – three

features for Channel 4 adapted from the quartet of ‘Yorkshire

Noir’ crime thrillers by David Peace. Screen Yorkshire had been

involved in the project from the start, initially optioning the rights

on the books before Revolution Films got involved and Channel 4

commissioned them. Screen Yorkshire invested £100,000 per fi lm

to secure the production for the region creating jobs for Yorkshire

crew and inward investment. The success of the fi lms means

that the investment will be recouped to be re-invested in

further productions.

”We wanted to make the look of the fi lm real but in a surprising

we used local crew and it was just a really good experience to be

working with people who knew their way around.”

VeryMuchSoScreen Yorkshire invested £27,250 into the feature documentary

producer VeryMuchSo so it could develop a slate of fi ve fi lms. The

award-winning company based in Sheffi eld had produced a trilogy

of fi lms about North Korea and other feature documentaries but

faced diffi culties in growing the company further and having the

resource to develop a slate of projects. The Screen Yorkshire

investment will also allow the company to investigate alternative

methods of distribution.

“BestFrontSeat’s core business is to deliver high quality video

content on-demand and to broadcast live events such as

concerts, company announcements and sports events.

The Screen Yorkshire investment was critical to us in building

our own content distribution platform which will now allow

us to gain new contracts and build our business here in Yorkshire.”

VIGILANTE

VIGILANTE“The experience of making ‘Vigilante’ was

invaluable to me as a filmmaker, and I’d like to

thank Screen Yorkshire not just for funding the

project, but also for the development, support

and encouragement they gave me throughout the

process. Thanks to them, I have had the privilege

of seeing my work screened at festivals across

the world and have picked up two awards for

the film in the process.

The challenges involved in making a short film are

only truly realised when you have a production on

the horizon, and I have learnt so much about

successful filmmaking thanks to the opportunities

afforded me by Screen Yorkshire.”

Set in the quiet and idyllic village of Hewson,

‘Vigilante’ is a dark and satirical mockumentary

that follows one member of a village group as

he sets out to eradicate crime and anti-social

behaviour and asks ultimately, to what lengths

should we and would we go to make our community

a better place? ‘Vigilante’ was commissioned under

the Screen Yorkshire Digital Shorts scheme, and

went on to win ’Best Yorkshire Short’ at Glimmer

2009, and an accolade at The Accolade Competition.

development programme

for emerging screenwriters

provides them with expert

mentoring to develop a project

to the treatment stage and

potentially gain industry

backing in three areas: feature

fi lm, television and narrative

gaming. Mentors include

Tony Grisoni (Red Riding

Trilogy, The Unloved); Sally

Wainwright (Unforgiven, At

Home with the Braithwaites);

John Godber (Bouncers!,

Up ‘n’ Under, Grange Hill)

and Tom Needham (The Bill,

Cold Blood, Silent Witness).

Screen Yorkshire and the

programme’s mentors work

with Rollem Productions (Fat

Friends, The Chase), to develop

projects for television and with

Sheffi eld-based digital fi lm

studio Warp X (All Tomorrow’s

Parties, Hush, Bunny & the

Bull) to develop feature fi lm

projects. The shortlisted

writers attended a boot camp

that mixed masterclasses with

intensive project interrogation

and culminated in a pitching

session involving Warp X and

Rollem. Projects were selected

which these companies are

ultimately prepared to option,

so the development process

has a direct industry focus.


Screen Yorkshire’s investment in film education projects aims to get young

people and community groups interested in making and watching films.

Three films at Scunthorpe Young People’s Film Festival were supported

by Screen Yorkshire. Destination Steeltown is an intergenerational project

which takes a look at how life has changed for a group of Muslim elders since

they emigrated to the UK in the 60s. Young people from the Madani Youth

Organisation in Scunthorpe interviewed and filmed them in their mosque

and neighbourhood.

The second film, Triptych, follows two young serial offenders and the third

project, It’s not all Gaga, involved the Barton Youth Band.

“As always I was delighted to see how quickly young people

adopt the skills necessary to gel together on a film shoot.

Everyone involved rose to the challenge and created three

RHIAN LONERGAN-WHITE // ProjectFacilitator // Dare to Know Ltd

“Without film education projects like these many of these young

people would never have engaged with media. This experience

helps them express themselves, gain confidence and develop

skills. In the longer term some of them may look to work in the

creative industries due to their interest being stimulated in

film-making.”

BRADFORD UNESCO

CITY OF FILM

Bradford became the world’s

fi rst UNESCO City of Film in

2009 thanks to a partnership

between Bradford Council,

the National Media Museum

and Screen Yorkshire along

with the support of the

University of Bradford and

Pace plc and in collaboration

with a range of partners from

fi lm organisations, creative

industries, commerce and

education. Bradford is now

part of the UNESCO (United

Nations, Educational, Scientifi c

and Cultural Organisation)

Creative Cities Network and

was awarded the status due

to its fi lm heritage; its

inspirational fi lm locations;

its diverse society and its

celebration of fi lm and its

commitment to sharing

understanding and enjoyment

of fi lm through the National

Media Museum and the

City’s annual fi lm festivals.

Bradford has been the location

for several iconic movies

including Billy Liar, The

Railway Children and Yanks

as well as acclaimed TV

productions such as the Red

Riding Trilogy, all of which

were set in and around the

City. Bradford now hopes

to use the status to encourage

more fi lm-makers and

enthusiasts to come to

Bradford; build Bradford’s

local and international profi le

and give the community

and visitors an exciting and

inspiring place to enjoy fi lm;

and enhance people’s

fi lm-making knowledge and

develop their fi lm-making

potential.

“This is superb news for

Bradford and is testimony to

the City’s dedication to the fi lm

and media industry. Not only

has Bradford played a crucial

role in the story of cinema and

helped shape its history, it has

inspirational plans to enhance

its future relationship with

fi lm, which will benefi t both

the local community and the

industry at large.”
