NI Talent Brian J. Falconer announced in line-up of BFI 2016 Vision Award Recipients
25 Aug 2016 : Katie McNeice
Earlier this week, the BFI announced 22 recipients of its 2016 Vision Awards.

The awards are designed to enable up-and-coming producers to develop professional projects, relationships and their companies. This year's recipients will received a combined amount of up to £2.2bn from the BFI of £2.2m of National Lottery funding.

Among recipients was Belfast-based Brian J. Falconer of Out of Orbit Ltd, known for the IFTA-nominated and BAFTA-winning short ‘Boogaloo and Graham’. This project was also among the Oscar-nominated short films of 2015.

Falconer’s current developments include those with Lisa Barros D’Sa and Glenn Leyburn, directors of the multi-award winning ‘Good Vibrations’ (2012). The producer is also working with ‘I Am Belfast’ director Mark Cousins, among others.

Falconer’s credits include 2015 shorts ‘Awaydays’, written by ‘Survivalist’ helmer Stephen Fingleton and ‘The Death of a Projectionist’ directed by Johnathan Beer. He was also a participant in the 2015 Guiding Lights Scheme.

On this year’s Vision Awards Director of the BFI Film Fund Ben Roberts Stated:

“After two successful previous rounds of Vision Awards, we decided this time to focus on providing some crucial support to producers who are at an earlier point in their career. The Vision Awards will give the successful producers the resource and support to partner with us on one of the key areas of our work – discovering and developing brilliant emerging filmmakers and new material – and in turn will help them to build their businesses.

“We had an overwhelming response in this round, which means that whilst we weren’t able to support all of the excellent and ambitious producers that we spoke to, we are really excited by the range and potential of those we will be working with through this vital scheme over the next two years. Congratulations!”

Other recipients of the 2016 Vision Awards include Selena Armitage of Red Breast Productions. Armitage is the producer behind Irish director Ben Cleary’s Oscar-winning short film ‘Stutterer’.
