IBC365 puts people front and centre in the latest series of IBC365 video tutorials, exploring key topics and initiatives created to improve industry standards. The tutorials dive into three widely discussed topics within DEI and sustainability: mentoring, biodiversity and disability provision.
Where should you start when it comes to implementing diversity and inclusion initiatives such as mentoring schemes and disability provisions for your organisation? How can your organisation contribute towards reducing the impact on biodiversity?
Having sound knowledge of the topics at hand and an initial framework for implementing new initiatives is an important first step, and that’s where IBC365 Tutorials can help.
Episode 1: How to set up an international mentoring scheme - ScreenCraft Works
The ScreenCraft Works Cross-Border Mentoring Scheme provides structured career development with an international outlook, to enrich careers in film, TV and online work.
The scheme matches under-represented production and post-production talent with international mentors, to share knowledge and experience, widen employment and peer-to-peer networks and bring new cultural perspectives to the mentoring groups’ local and international productions.
In this tutorial, Rebecca del Tufo, Co-Founder and Director of Screencraft Works, shares the what, why and how of mentoring. You’ll gain a deep understanding of how to set up a mentoring scheme and what it entails, and learn how the process supports the industry and what the impact is.
Episode 2: Providing access provision for disabled talent - TV Access Project
Launched in August 2022, the TV Access Project (TAP) is an alliance of 10 of the UK’s biggest broadcasters and streamers who have pledged to work together to create a substantive and permanent structural shift in the TV industry to ensure access provision for disabled talent.
Its vision is to see full inclusion by 2030 – that is to say, a television industry where no disabled talent is ever excluded because barriers have been removed and equity created. At its heart, TAP is an ambitious co-creation between disabled people and the wider industry to deliver sustainable solutions with buy-in for and from everyone.
In this tutorial, Laurence Clark, Chairman of the Board, TripleC, outlines what TAP is, and what are the five A’s to help you ensure the full and equal inclusion of deaf, disabled and/or neurodivergent talent.
Episode 3: Calculating, reducing and improving your impact on biodiversity – BAFTA albert
In September 2023, BAFTA albert launched a new biodiversity guide which aims to help productions reduce their impact and explore ways of becoming nature-positive.
In this video, you’ll gain an understanding of how the screen industry impacts biodiversity, why it matters, and how BAFTA albert’s Biodiversity guide and checklist can support you and the industry.
Featuring Kirstie Shirra, Sustainability Consultant, albert, this tutorial is designed for anyone who is working in the screen industry and wants to reduce their impact on biodiversity in every area of production, from planning to props.
