Katie Brown

Production Manager

“It was great to be a part of this BFI collaboration. Working alongside experienced directors as I enter the industry myself was invaluable. The ingenuity in the scripts, combined with the hard work of BFS to bring that vision to life, highlights our shared love for film, and I think is a credit to the next generation of filmmakers.”
