Sheffield Doc/Fest, short for Sheffield International Documentary Festival (SIDF), is an international documentary festival and Marketplace held annually in Sheffield.

The Festival includes film screenings, interactive and virtual reality exhibitions, talks & sessions, Marketplace & Talent for the funding and distribution of documentaries and development of filmmakers, unmissable live events, and its own awards.

Since beginning in 1994,[1] Doc/Fest has become the UK's biggest documentary festival and the third largest in the world.[2][3] The BBC have called it "one of the leading showcases of documentary films".[4]

Sheffield Doc/Fest is now widely recognised as one of the top three documentary festivals in the world, and "the most significant documentary festival in Britain".[5] The Festival has been voted one of the Top Five Coolest Documentary Film Festivals in the World by MovieMaker magazine.[6]

About Sheffield Doc/Fest

The Festival is held at over 20 other venues across Sheffield and the surrounding area, including the Showroom Workstation, Light Cinema, Sheffield Town Hall, Sheffield City Hall, and the Doc/Fest Exchange on Tudor Square developed with Wellcome. Fun is a key element, and the festival holds many parties.[7] The festival has grown steadily over recent years.[8] Doc/Fest screenings help many films to achieve a wider audience by attracting distribution and further screening opportunities for the films it shows.[9]

Sheffield Doc/Fest's Marketplace & Talent is a major part of the Festival, which includes the MeetMarket for films and series to achieve funding and distribution, Alternate Realities Market for interactive and virtual reality projects, live pitches, and other training initiatives.

Interactive, immersive and virtual reality documentary is also a central element of the Festival with interactive exhibitions and commissioned works scattered across the city, and the Alternate Realities Summit taking place throughout an entire day of the Festival.

{{Quote|text=It has the traditional film festival element in that it screens exciting new documentaries, but it's also a place where buyers, film distributors and producers come to meet documentary makers and find the next big thing.|sign=Alex Graham, Festival Chairman|source=[7]}}

Sheffield Doc/Fest is the perfect platform for anyone with an interest in interactive, virtual reality and factual content. Doc/Fest prides itself in supporting and nurturing new talent: in addition to the Festival days in June, Sheffield Doc/Fest presents All Year workshops, screenings, labs and mentoring opportunities both in the UK and internationally.

History

In 1990, Peter Symes of BBC TV Features Bristol had the idea of creating a forum for British documentary filmmakers to debate and discuss their craft. In 1993, he set up a festival board which included representatives from Channel 4, United Artists, Discovery Channel, Central Independent Television and Granada Television. They chose to hold the festival in Sheffield, an English industrial town which was just beginning to develop a media and cultural sector.[11]

The first Sheffield International Documentary Festival was held in 1994, formatted as an international film festival and conference for documentary professionals.[12] It included a film programme, one or two masterclasses, and a party.[13] It lasted two days and mainly attracted London-based filmmakers and producers, plus several international commissioners and distributors.

Over the next eight years, the Festival continued with around 475-700 delegates attending, and total audiences reaching around 2000. The Festival became an opportunity for London-based independent filmmakers to talk to commissioners at the BBC and Channel 4, who were otherwise difficult to reach. Success at the Festival might mean landing a job for the coming year.[11]

In 2005 Doc/Fest was struggling to survive, with around 500 mostly-UK delegates and 2000 visitors. The chairman at the time, Steve Hewlett, visited the Australian International Documentary Conference (AIDC) where he met its director Heather Croall, who had a background in filmmaking and had founded the cross-platform storytelling event DigiDocs. He invited Croall to come and work for the festival, where she was subsequently Festival Director & CEO until early 2015, turning around the Festival's fortunes.[8]

The 1990s rise in international co-productions meant that British producers could no longer rely solely on one big broadcaster for their entire budget, and instead had to look abroad to piece together financing for their films. To internationalise the Festival and help filmmakers achieve this financing, Croall introduced the MeetMarket pitching forum, where filmmakers pitch their ideas to funders in one-to-one meetings. MeetMarket was developed with the help Karolina Lidin, Marketplace Executive Producer since 2008. In 2003, she developed the very first MeetMarket with Croall at AIDC, which was later brought to Sheffield in 2006.

Croall also introduced the digital-focused Summit and Crossover Market, now Alternate Realities Market, which – like the MeetMarket – pairs buyers and commissioners with game designers, technologists, producers, digital agencies and filmmakers, all looking to tell stories in the interactive realm.

In 2007, Hussain Currimbhoy joined as programmer.[14]

In 2011 the Festival moved from November to June, to better fit into the industry calendar and ensure better weather and lighter evenings for visitors.

Doc/Fest was an early advocate of crowdfunding as a source of finance for documentary filmmakers, and in 2010 staged its first festival-based crowdfunding pitching event, which was also an industry first.[15][16] The campaign was launched on Indiegogo with a goal to raise $25k for the Festival to help stage special events.[17] They exceeded their target.[18]

From 2012, selected highlights from the Festival have often played at the BFI Southbank in London.[19] The Festival began producing its own film projects, including From the Sea to the Land Beyond in 2012 and The Big Melt in 2013.

From 2014, the Festival became recognised by the Academy Awards as an Oscar-qualifying festival in the Best Documentary (Short Subject) category[23] with the Doc/Fest Short Doc Award Winner eligible to enter for consideration. Many Doc/Fest Short Doc Award-winning films have gone on to be shortlisted for Oscars.

In 2014 Doc/Fest presented films including Beyond Clueless and Love Is All at Latitude Festival,[20] with Sigur Ros scored archive film 100 Years of Vaudeville, Circuses and Carnivals, Montage of Heck, Sounds of the Cosmos and a number of shorts also featured in 2015. This partnership has continued, and in 2017 Doc/Fest brought a selection of virtual reality projects to Latitude for the first time, alongside a curated programme of shorts.[21]

In 2014 there were some high level staff changes. Deputy Director Charlie Phillips left to head up the documentary arm of The Guardian, with director of Berwick Film & Media Arts Festival Melanie Iredale taking up the position.[22] Director of Programming Hussain Currimbhoy left for Sundance Festival with former Executive Content Adviser at Independent Television Service (ITVS) Claire Aguilar becoming Head of Programming & Industry Engagement.[23] Croall returned to Australia to direct the Adelaide Fringe Festival.[24]

Following Heather's departure, Crossover Labs Director Mark Atkin stepped in as Acting Director for the 2015 Festival, before Liz McIntyre of Discovery Networks joined as CEO & Festival Director from 1 September 2015.[25]

Since McIntyre's appointment, the CEO & Festival Director has championed diverse and pluralist voices, inclusiveness and accessibility, for example creating a crèche service and introducing British Sign Language interpreted talks,[26] Dementia-friendly screenings,[27] Doc/Dinner for championing diverse talent within the industry,[28] and a From Door to Doc, affording reduced rate entry to screenings for hard-to-reach areas of Sheffield.[29]

In 2016 there were high-level staff appointments. Luke W Moody, formerly of BRITDOC (now Doc Society) joined as Director of Film Programming, replacing Head of Programming & Industry Engagement Claire Aguilar.[30] Former Dogwoof Distribution Manager Patrick Hurley joined as Head of Marketplace & Talent, replacing Marketplace Manager Anna Parker.[31] From BBC, Dan Tucker joined as Curator of Alternate Realities.[32] And in 2017, Lisa Brook joined as Marketing & Events Consultant.

The effect of the Festival on Sheffield's economy is worth millions of pounds. Outside of the annual Festival, there is now also a year-round programme, called Doc/Fest All Year, providing training, educational and cultural activities across the UK, including a training initiative for aspiring feature documentary producers called Future Producer School launched in 2014.[33]

Films

Sheffield Doc/Fest's film programme showcases international documentaries and new works of non-fiction.

The Film programme includes:

  • Over 150 screenings of feature, mid-length and short documentaries and works of non-fiction each year.
  • Q&As with the filmmakers and protagonists of the films.
  • A strand of panels corresponding to the main programme, featuring filmmakers and protagonists of the films, including sessions, workshops, and pitching competitions.[119]
  • Free outdoor screenings of U-rated documentaries.[120]
  • A series of films In Competition for prestigious awards.[121]

Alternate Realities

Sheffield Doc/Fest runs a number of programmes focused on new media development in interactive and immersive projects and virtual reality, titled Alternate Realities.

The Alternate Realities programme includes:

  • The Alternative Realities Summit, which is a full day of sessions exploring the digital revolution in broadcasting.[5] Delegates can network with representatives from the film and TV industry, which have included keynote speakers such as Google's Jessica Brillhart,[122] BBC North's Richard Deverell, Frank Rose, Steven Johnson and Katerina Cizek from Highrise. The day includes breakout sessions and round table discussions.[19][93]
  • The Alternative Realities Market, which is a pitching event for interactive and digital projects[86] run in a similar way to the festival's MeetMarket. It took place for the first time in 2013, when 27 project teams pitched to 85 cross-platform decision makers.[123]
  • A strand of Alternative Realities panels during the main Festival conference programme, which includes sessions, commissioning editor panels, workshops, project showcasing, and cross-platform pitching competitions.
  • The Alternative Realities Exhibition, which shows and hosts interactive and VR including those commissioned especially for the Festival. This is also a space where delegates can meet and network.[87]
  • Meet the Maker sessions, which allow audiences to meet the artists behind the projects featured in the exhibition for informal Q&As.[124]

In 2017, Alternate Realities at Sheffield Doc/Fest was awarded Arts Council England NPO status, helping the programme to grow even further.[125]

Talks & Sessions

Sheffield Doc/Fest's Talks & Sessions programme features high-profile speakers, industry creatives, and documentary talent in a variety of discussions, large public talks, commissioning question panels, interviews, and showcasing sessions.

Past high-profile speakers include Sir David Attenborough,[126] Louis Theroux,[127] Nick Broomfield,[127] Stacey Dooley,[128] Joanna Lumley,[129] Reggie Yates,[28] Walter Murch,[130] Michael Moore,[129] Kim Longinotto,[131] Tilda Swinton,[132] D. A. Pennebaker,[132] John Akomfrah,[133] Brett Morgan,[134] Sue Perkins,[135] and Joan Rivers.[136]

Marketplace & Talent

MeetMarket & Alternate Realities Market

MeetMarket & Alternate Realities Market is a documentary pitching event held at Sheffield Doc/Fest, where filmmakers pitch their project ideas one-on-one to UK and international broadcasters, funders and distributors.

Former Festival Director Heather Croall introduced MeetMarket to Doc/Fest in 2006 and developed it as an alternative to public pitching (where filmmakers pitch to a large audience).[137] Each meeting is match-made and scheduled with relevant Decision Makers. Each year there are approximately 65 projects, which hold many one-to-one across two days.[138] In 2017, the event was attended by 330 Decision Makers.

Since its introduction, nearly 10,800 meetings have taken place for 609 documentary and digital projects (as of July 2017).

All meetings held at MeetMarket have been requested by both parties, meaning it's more likely for a deal to be made. While the focus is on achieving funding and distribution, participants also benefit from advice on production, distribution, exhibition, marketing and outreach. Filmmaker Guy Davidi said "Pitching in intimate round-table sessions was a big comfort. It reduces tension and competitiveness and makes the whole thing much more relaxed and fun. We have created important connections and in one case it led directly to an investment."[139]

In 2017, 63 projects from 22 countries, including new films from Michael Moore, Mark Cousins, Kim Longinotto, Dionne Walker, Laura Poitras, and Jerry Rothwell, and 24 Alternate Realities projects were selected, including works from Charlotte Mikkelborg, Richard Nockles, and INK Stories. 330 Decision Makers took part, including representatives from Submarine, BBC Earth VR, Royal Shakespeare Company, The National Film Board of Canada, VICE, and Pulse Films.[140]

In 2016, 64 projects from 27 countries were chosen to participate, including new films from Orlando von Einsiedel, Jennifer Brea, Mike Lerner, Stefan Kloos, Nick Fraser, Christoph Jorg, David Letterman, Al Morrow, Jeanie Finlay, Andre Singer, Amir Amiriani, and Catherine Allen. 25 Alternate Realities Market projects were chosen, including works from Katharine Round, Alex Pearson, Darren Emerson, and Jennifer Brea. 313 Decision Makers took part in the MeetMarket, Alternate Realities Market and various other Marketplace initiatives from organisations including Red Bull, Canal+, Al Jazeera, Discovery, National Geographic, Google, and Netflix.[141]

In 2015, 64 projects from 19 countries were chosen to participate in MeetMarket from 600 submissions,[72] including new films from John Akomfrah, Lindsey Dryden and Maheen Zia. 300 executives, distributors, commissioners, funders, advisors and buyers across documentary and digital media took part in the MeetMarket and Marketplace activity including The Guardian, BBC, ARTE, Dogwoof and Channel 4.

In 2014, 64 projects were chosen to participate in MeetMarket,[72] including new films from Franny Armstrong, William Karel, and Stanley Nelson Jr.. 290 investors, commissioners and production partners took part including commissioners from Netflix, Dazed, Vice, Vimeo and Nowness and distributors Oscilloscope Laboratories, Dogwoof and PBS.[71]

In 2013 MeetMarket attracted over 600 applications. Over 60 projects from 18 countries were chosen to participate. Filmmakers included Franny Armstrong, Marshall Curry, Jeanie Finlay, Alex Gibney, Phil Grabsky, Brian Hill, Victor Kossakovsky and Joshua Oppenheimer.[11] The selection also included six cross-platform projects.

MeetMarket films and Alternate Realities Market projects are tracked for success across awards and other film festivals. Films and projects have gone on to win awards at Sundance, Tribeca, IDFA, Hot Docs and Doc/Fest.[139]

Notable films to achieve funding through MeetMarket include Unrest and Unrest VR,[142] Notes on Blindness and Notes on Blindness: Into Darkness,[143] Joshua Oppenheimer's The Act of Killing[8] and The Look of Silence, Searching for Sugarman, Jeanie Finlay's The Great Hip Hop Hoax,[144] Ping Pong, 5 Broken Cameras, and God Loves Uganda.[145]

Pitches

The Marketplace plays host to further initiatives, such as pitches and prize competitions. Pitched projects are selected from an open call, cover a range of topics, and offer funding, in-kind support and Festival Pass prizes.

Previous pitches include:

  • The BFI Film Fund
  • The Whicker's World Foundation Film & TV Award, offering £80,000 to the winning pitch
  • BBC Northern Docs Pitch
  • The Guardian Pitch
  • VICE Rule Britannia Pitch
  • The Channel 4 First Cut Pitch
  • Virgin Money Shorts Competition[146]

Training Initiatives

The Marketplace also holds All Year training initiatives, including Future Producer School. Future Producer School, created by Sheffield Doc/Fest and Bungalow Town Productions, has successfully run every year since its launch in 2014. Aimed at emerging producers currently working in the industry, the primary outcome of Future Producer School is to develop industry partnerships and provide industry knowledge and experience to up-and-coming producers that have the ambition to become international feature documentary producers.[147] Notable alumni include Eloise King, Julia Nottingham, Lindsey Dryden, and Sky Neal.[148]

On-Screen Talent Market is a Sheffield Doc/Fest initiative to connect charismatic subject-specialists with producers, commissioners, and other Decision Makers looking for fresh faces for their programmes. The programme includes an intensive morning training programme giving insight into the industry via first-hand encounters with established professionals, and is designed for the experts to hone their skills in presenting themselves to the media. This is followed by an afternoon of match-made one-to-one meetings between the talent and television executives. The programme is designed and delivered in collaboration with the Academic Ideas Lab.[149]

Doc/Dinner allows a group of emerging filmmakers to dine with industry executives to exchange ideas and expertise, hosted by Yates. In 2017, execs from the BBC, Channel 4, VICE, Pulse Films and The Guardian met with 20 young filmmakers.[150]

Delegations

Doc/Fest hosts a number of international and national delegations each year, including delegations from Norway,[151] Scotland,[152] Palestine,[153] Indonesia, Jordan, Cuba and Wider Europe.[154]

Social Events & Networking

Each year, Doc/Fest hosts parties and drinks events during the Festival and year-round, including the annual Guilty Pleasures Party held at both Doc/Fest[155][156] and in Amsterdam at IDFA.[157]

Nightly parties are themed around the programme and in 2017 included: the I Will Always Love Docs Party, celebrating the premiere of Whitney "Can I Be Me";[158] a Great Get Together lunchtime picnic celebrating the life and legacy of Jo Cox MP, before the premiere of Closing Night Film Jo Cox: Death of an MP;[159] and in 2016, and the Vogue, Strike a Pose Party, celebrating the premieres of Strike a Pose and Kiki.[160]

Each year also sees the Award Ceremony hosted at Sheffield's Crucible Theatre, honouring the best films of the Festival.[121]

Each Festival sees dozens of networking drinks hosted by sponsors and supporters, including Image Nation Abu Dhabi, The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, Shooting People, and more.[161]
