HERITAGE FILMMAKERS FRAMEWORK

Description

The Heritage Fund invests in the full breadth of the UK's heritage and, through our funding, we aim to make a lasting difference for heritage and people. This is reflected in the outcomes which underpin our grant-making and the objectives set out in our Strategic Funding Framework 2019-2024.

To communicate that lasting difference, we often commission videos to tell the story of the heritage, people and places that benefit from our funding. On average, we commission around six-12 short films each year. 

We are looking to recruit a small group of filmmakers ("Suppliers") to draw on for these commissions. 
The Goods and/or Services required are the production of professional films, generally within the heritage and culture market sector. 
This includes but is not limited to:

•	developing ideas into a visual or written brief and providing advice and support on film concepts
•	responding to briefs provided by the Heritage Fund and presenting work in progress
•	visiting heritage sites (sometimes independently) to record footage, interviews, etc 
•	editing raw footage and other assets into professional films for website, social media and event/broadcast purposes
•	ensuring all work complies with Heritage Fund brand guidelines and house style, including accessibility considerations
•	conforming to budgets and undertaking any billing requirements
•	managing raw and finished video footage and assets (digital and/or otherwise) in a safe, accessible environment for seven years
•	providing a nominated contact to manage the relationship between the Heritage Fund and the Supplier under this framework agreement, to resolve any issues and to implement any improvements/innovations during the framework period
•	complying with Heritage Fund policies and other requirements, such as our Equality, Diversity and Inclusion policy, Health and Safety policy and Information Security Policy (as well as any of the Heritage Fund's grantees' policies as communicated from time to time)

As part of the supply of the Goods and/or Services to the Heritage Fund, the Suppliers may also be required to: 
•	work within sensitive historic and/or natural environments and/or with sensitive material  
•	work with individuals with special needs 
•	work with professionals from heritage or other grantee organisations
