Working Title Films

1. When looking at the typical conventions associated within your films, when new ideas arrive through new talent, do you embrace them or stick to your traditional values, and why?

   How did WT2 come about?
When I was at Working Title we set up a New Writers Scheme to develop new talent. Normally we do not accept unsolicited material (scripts that do not come from an agent or producer) but for the scheme we had to relax a bit and open the doors. The problem was that at Working Title, smaller films would inevitably get less attention than the bigger budget projects so we decided to set up WT2 to give proper attention to those smaller films. Quite a few of the writers we were developing on the Scheme we are now working with us at WT2 while others have set up their projects with other companies, which is great.”

2. what forms of audiences are you now aiming for with your films, are they still the traditional target groups, or are you expanding your audience range, and why?
