Another similar organisation to Creative England is one called Screen Yorkshire, This organisation overs support to talent in the film and games industry in Yorkshire, here is their description of themselves:
For over ten years, Screen Yorkshire has been at the forefront of championing the film, TV, games and digital industries in Yorkshire and the Humber. Its aim has always been to secure and support the very best projects, companies and individuals, helping to make Yorkshire and the Humber one of the most sought after destinations for production in the UK. Screen Yorkshire is a specialist business which invests first and foremost in content, but also in developing talent. As an investor in content it runs the largest investment fund of its kind in the UK – the £15m, ERDF-supported Yorkshire Content Fund.
Apologies for this being quite a short post, but it is a similar story the creative England. I like how they also have an emphasis on the games industry so it does seem like a more appropriate organisation to contact for their opinion on how to get myself started in the industry. I have collated an email explaining my current situation and my plans and ambitions in the animation industry to send them for guidance.
My only gripe with this organisation is that, despite their interest in supporting all digital entertainment industries, the website is heavily focused on film, the news section is full of film orientated content. But the effort they have put in, is quite impressive.
