The Story to Screen Lab
An untold story, taken from idea to finished film and a screening. We run it with Screen Sisters CIC: outreach, writers room, shoot, post and screening. Story to Screen Lab
Learning and data
Screen Sisters members use the same free learning as anyone else. No separate login, no joint brand on the lessons.
When accounts open, Futures in Film CIC holds the learner records. Screen Sisters CIC sees totals: how many started, finished and went on. It sees a named record only if the learner says yes, and learners are told this in one plain sentence before they sign up. Until accounts open, nothing you do in the academy leaves your device.
Two companies
Each has its own board, accounts and community interest report at Companies House. Some directors sit on both boards. We declare those interests and record any dealings between the two. The board
Working together
A short written partnership note sets out:
- who does what;
- how the Story to Screen Lab is credited;
- who holds learner records;
- how each company's name and logo are used;
- how either side can review or end it.
It's reviewed once a year.
