Company activities and impact

During the 2025 financial year, Cables & Cameras (C&C) continued its mission to empower filmmakers from the Global Majority and underrepresented communities across Bristol and the South West. Our activities focused on three core pillars: international col-laboration, industry equity, and community exhibition. A.T.L.A.N. (Africans Transforming Lives And Narratives): Supported by a UWE Bristol community grant and the Bris-tol Commonwealth Society, C&C delivered a dual-phase programme. This included a high-profile screening and Q&A with the South African collective KAMVA and an international curation workshop involving creatives from Botswana. HETV 4 POC: In partnership with The Bottle Yard Studios (via the All Set Programme), we hosted a specialist event championing women and Global Majority filmmakers. The initiative focused on the High-End Television (HETV) sector, providing a platform for short film screenings and industry-led discussions on diversifying televised narratives. Inspired Film Festival: We successfully delivered the fifth edition of our flagship festival at the Cube Cinema. Supported by the BFI Inclusion team, this year’s festival celebrated the intersection of music and culture, showcasing international features from the Caribbean and North America alongside cutting-edge local short films. Strategic Partnerships: We expanded our network by formalising relationships with the Bristol University Caribbean Soci-ety, DET Entertainment, and Screen Corner an International podcast producers in South Africa. Skills Development & Employability: Through the A.T.L.A.N. programme, we provided student volunteers and emerging filmmakers with "real-world" experience in event production, international curation, and technical delivery, directly en-hancing their professional portfolios. Industry Access: HETV 4 POC bridged the gap between local grassroots talent and major industry hubs like The Bottle Yard Studios. This facilitated essential networking opportunities that are often inaccessible to underrepresented groups, aiming to disrupt systemic barriers in the television industry. Cultural Representation & Confidence: By exhibiting stories from the African continent and the Diaspora, we provided a vital space for the community to see their own lived experiences reflected on screen. This has been instrumental in build-ing the confidence of local emerging creatives. Economic Support: By hosting our flagship festival at the Cube Cinema and partnering with local social enterprises, C&C contributed to the local "orange economy," supporting independent venues and charitable organizations within Bristol.
