🌟 Celebrating Documentary Excellence at the Grierson Awards 🌟

Last night, a few of us from The Finish Line had the pleasure of attending the Grierson Awards to celebrate the outstanding nominees, winners, and the incredible craft of documentary filmmaking. It was an inspiring evening, filled with stories that make an impact and showcase the power of real storytelling.

A special mention to My Name is Happy, which took home the award for Best Single Documentary – International. This powerful film by Nick Read, Ayse Toprak, Adam Bullmore, Mahmut Kaya, Meryem Yavuz, and Anna Price (October Films, Red Zed Films, Horovel Films) tells the moving story of Kurdish singer Mutlu Kaya, who survived a brutal attack after reaching the finals of Turkey’s Got Talent. Despite life-changing injuries and tragic loss, Mutlu has become a courageous voice for women’s rights in Turkey, sharing her journey and shining a light on the pressing issue of femicide.

The jurors described the film as an inspirational story of resilience, highlighting Mutlu’s strength as she transforms tragedy into powerful advocacy. We’re honoured to celebrate such impactful work.

If you’re heading into production for a new series or film and wondering how to push forward in a landscape of reduced budgets and rising costs, it might be time to consider some new tools.

We’re convinced that large parts of the industry are stuck with outdated software, limiting what’s possible with sluggish systems and inefficient workflows.

So, we’re looking for two or three projects to help us prove a point: great editors aren’t defined by a single tool. There are incredible advantages of taking your edit into DaVinci Resolve and to sweeten the deal, we’ll give you free ingest and conforms for these projects. Why? Because it's faster and easier 🤩

We know talented teams can adapt quickly, and right now, embracing change isn’t just about staying afloat—it’s about thriving. If you’re ready to lead the way and set a new standard, let’s chat!

Broadcast Hot Picks: Mozart: Rise of A Genius
“There’s been a lot of scripted content on Mozart, but I can’t think of anything very recently that compares to this,” says Clark. “It’s got a really interesting mix of drama and documentary, which gives it a very good pace. And the contributors are household names, which really separates this from your classic documentary about a known figure.”
