Virtual Bristol Distinguished Address: Professor Lyndsay Duthie, CEO, The Production Guild of Great Britain

Pushing past the pandemic, what’s next for film and television?
After an unprecedented halt to film and television production, the industry had to find new ways of working safely. This was a momentous effort which led to the British Film Commission’s working safely on set protocols. Features like Jurassic World: Dominion became a trailblazer, implementing over 40,000 Covid tests for crew and leading the way for new production techniques. There were some wins for jobs that were once perceived as impossible to do from home, enabled by technology. How does that level up the field for those caregivers, in particular women, who leave the industry disproportionately to their male counterparts? What are the lessons we can learn and what does the future look like as we push past the pandemic?

Watershed, 1 Canons Road, Harbourside, BS1 5TX
Conference
It’s time to redefine ‘peak’ performance. A narrow focus on driving sales during the spending frenzy of Q4 won’t secure the long-term, sustainable customer connections your organisation needs to adapt to a turbulent economy and a challenging marketing landscape.
Launch’s October event makes space for CMOs to reimagine ‘peak’ into a state of being for their marketing efforts, and identify the framework needed to make this possible.
