Salary: £6,000 fixed fee

The BFI Film Audience Network and Film Hub Scotland are commissioning an evaluation of This Way Up.

The BFI Film Audience Network and Film Hub Scotland are commissioning an evaluation of This Way Up to assess its impact on FAN members and the independent film exhibition in the UK. This Way Up (TWU) is the annual conference for independent film exhibitors in the UK.

Outline specification

An evaluation is being commissioned by the BFI Film Audience Network and Film Hub Scotland to assess the impact TWU has had on FAN members and the independent film exhibition in the UK from its first edition in 2014 to the most current, which will be held in autumn 2022.

This evaluation is also commissioned in the context of the BFI’s new 10 year strategy which will be launched in autumn 2022.

The evaluation should make an assessment as to whether the key aims of TWU have been met and the extent to which it has contributed to FAN’s aim of creating a stronger, more connected and confident sector for the distribution and exhibition of independent British and international film. The report should look specifically at the following aspects:

  1. Impact of TWU on FAN members
  2. Impact on the independent exhibition sector
  3. Who attends and who doesn’t
  4. Reasons for attending / for not attending
  5. Perceived benefits of those attending – were expectations met?
  6. Alignment with BFI/FAN priorities
  7. Value for money including reference to other funds raised and true cost of delivery (staffing etc)
  8. Range and frequency of topics covered
  9. Practical outcomes – i.e., any discernible impact in terms of change / delivery / engagement / programming / marketing
  10. Perception of funders / stakeholders
  11. Assessment of how TWU fits into the wider marketplace for similar events or offerings.
