Another wonderful Cannes in the books! This year it was great to see UK independent features take a focus. From the world premier of I See Buildings Fall Like Lightning from Clio Barnard, backed by BBC film and the BFI, to landmark double selection from National Film and Television School students, Left Behind, Still Standing and Pickled, being selected for the La Cinef – student competition.
At Sargent‑Disc, we were delighted to host our 11th International Producers Reception this year. Thank you to everyone who joined us and made it another truly memorable occasion. It’s always a highlight for us to come together with our friends and partners across the international production community.
This year is particularly meaningful for us as we celebrate 40 years of supporting the film and television industry. Over the past four decades, we’ve been privileged to work alongside productions of all sizes, delivering trusted payroll and residuals services, expert production accounting, as well as production accounting tools and solutions that ensure accuracy and efficiency throughout the filmmaking process.
Through our specialised tools and solutions, including our Digital Production Office® suite and end‑to‑end digital payroll workflows, we help production and accounts teams operate with greater accuracy, efficiency and flexibility at every stage of the filmmaking process.
If you’d like to learn more about how we can support your production, please get in touch at sales@sargent-disc.com or visit our services and products page.
We are deeply thankful for the relationships we’ve built over the decades and the continued trust placed in us. Being part of so many productions’ journeys has been a privilege, and we look forward to supporting the industry for many more years to come.
Special thanks to our partners of the reception the British Film Commission, Canadian Media Producers Association, Fédération Internationale des Associations de Producteurs de Films Independent Film and Television Alliance, Producers Alliance for Cinema and Television, Production Guild UK, Screen Australia, Screen Producers Ireland and New Zealand Film Commission for their support with the event.
We were proud to sponsor the Women in Film and Television brunch hosted by Coutts. A standout event that brought together an exceptional group of industry professionals leading and shaping the industry. More than just networking, it was a space for real conversation, shared ideas and celebration of talent across film and television.
