Vertical, Micro or Short form drama is rapidly emerging as a new storytelling language and a fast-growing global business. But beyond the headlines, how does this ecosystem actually work?
Bringing together international producers, commissioners, platforms and creators, the Vertical Drama Forum is an informal, industry-focused round table exploring the creative and commercial mechanics behind mobile-first, short-form fiction: from story development and production models to commissioning strategies, revenue streams, audience behaviour and distribution. The aim is to provide participants with practical tools to approach short-form and vertical production, deepen their understanding of its ecosystem and develop a more informed and effective relationship with this rapidly evolving space.
Closed door Roundtable by invitation only
