Film and Broadcasting...
In South West England, around 600 people operate in the key sub-sectors of film production. Others working in the facilities industry provide services for film, for example in post production.

Much location filming is undertaken in South West England. A number of film festivals take place each year: Wild screen, the world's leading natural history film festival; Encounters combining the former Brief Encounters and Animated Encounters festivals, the Cornwall Film Festival, screening a range of Cornish films and featuring premieres; the Cheltenham Screenwriters Festival, dedicated to the art, craft, and business of writing for the screen.
