Mumbai: Frame Your Idea (FYI) at FICCI FRAMES 2019, concluded yesterday, created even greater access to content producers for those with a creative spark and the burning desire to achieve success in celluloid but having no access to makers.
During the 3 days of FYI, over 3500 meetings fructified between 400 writers/idea owners & over 50 Producers/Studios/Broadcasters. These meetings were across various categories including Film, Animation, Digital/Web Series, TV, and Documentary.
Over 50 FYI panelists consisted of content teams of producers, directors, studios, broadcasters and content aggregators, looking for that next big idea, story, script or finished content that they would want to grab and put out there.
In 2015, FICCI conceived and executed this ‘first of its kind’ forum in India called‘Frame Your Idea’ (FYI) with the intention to create access for creative minds to pitch their ideas, stories or scripts to best content producers.
The forum was unveiled in 2015 at the 16th edition of FICCI FRAMES, an annual event of FICCI, which serves as a vital link between the media & entertainment industry and the policy makers.
In 2019, with the participation of international creative minds (Qatar, New Zealand, Iran, United Arab Emirates, United States) and of course all parts of India, FYI with its figures makes itself the only platform in the country of its kind & scale.
