Sky Documentaries has named the four diverse owned/led production companies – DARE Pictures, Proper Content, Zandland, and 22Summers – selected to take part in the newly launched Sky Development Partnership Fund.
The programme will see each indie get tailored support from Sky Documentaries and they will collaborate closely with the commissioning team over six months to work up a slate of new ideas, along with a minimum of £15k towards development work.
Hayley Reynolds, Acting Director of Documentaries & Factual at Sky, said: “After a competitive selection process, we’re thrilled to partner with these four exceptional companies, who bring with them a wealth of experience and formidable creative ambition. Working together, we hope to make boundary-pushing docs that engage, challenge, and entertain our audience in new and exciting ways.”
Luke Seraphin, Head of Diversity at Sky, added: “Our Development Partnership is a vital step in ensuring that our industry reflects the rich tapestry of voices that make up our society. By supporting these talented production companies, we’re not just investing in powerful storytelling but also in the future of a more diverse and representative media landscape.”
