Talent development project Two Minute Masterpiece is an opportunity for creators in Northern Ireland to get comedy ideas onto the BBC!

The scheme is offered by BBC Northern Ireland in partnership with Northern Ireland Screen. It aims to develop new talented creators and is open to documentary and animation ideas as well as comedy ideas.

They’re looking for diversity, creativity, and solid artistic vision from the next generation of content creators, in particular those from backgrounds that are underrepresented in the media industry.

Up to four filmmakers will be chosen to create a two-minute video which will be showcased on the BBC. You’ll receive:

  • Training from an industry professional
  • An industry mentor
  • A production fund of £2500

You’ll need to be available on certain dates to apply for this opportunity – for a full list of those, and to apply, head on over to the BBC’s website.

Applications close on 2nd December 2022.
