Bella Central
One of my go-to venues for conferences. Attended 3 different events this year. The highlight for me was being invited to FOCUS 2024, the annual Film conference, which began a few years ago. All about the business of film - locations, production, sets, security, sustainability, Union, and more. Last year, I attended to moderate a Q&A - first time I'd heard about the conference. This year, I enjoyed listening to others and soaking up the atmosphere. I got to meet people from all over the UK and the world 🗺️ 💞 Just received the wrap press release from the organiser, which stated: "Over 3900 delegates, exhibitors, sponsors, and international delegations, from 72 countries, enjoyed two packed days of conference sessions, meetings, and networking events." Although this is a specialist business exhibition, I want to give you a glimpse into this behind-the-scenes event in London, which helps to get our favourite movies to the big screens! 🎬 😘
