Cables + Cameras In conversation with Joy Gharoro-Akpojotor.

 

Cables + Cameras have partnered with BFI NETWORK South West for this ‘in conversation’ event with BFI Vision Awardee Producer and Writer Joy Gharoro-Akpojotor. Hosted by Adam Murray (Bristol-based Film Programmer/Writer/Broadcaster).


Joy recently produced Blue Story, written and directed by Andrew “Rapman” Onwubolu for Paramount and BBC Films. In 2019, she was nominated for Breakthrough Producer Award at the BIFAs. In 2016 she produced White Colour Black, which premiered at the BFI London Film Festival and earned director Joseph A. Adesunloye a nomination for the inaugural IWC Schaffhausen Filmmaker Bursary Award in association with the BFI.

Joy set up film production company Joi Productions, to focus on Queer, Black and Female-led work. She currently has projects in development with the BFI, BBC Films and Film Four.

 C+C is a Bristol-based networking and film exhibition event for Filmmakers and Creatives of Colour. Its motivation is to encourage and empower independent Black and Brown Filmmakers / Creatives in the South West to tell their untold stories. Over the last three years C+C has grown from strength to strength with a bimonthly film night, which has created a platform and networking hub to screen, share work and explore opportunities to collaborate in the city.
