A new free resource, Working Differently - a short documentary style film and Good Practice Guide - has launched today on Screen Scotland’s website, to support awareness and highlight the importance of Neurodivergent (ND) people working within the Scottish Film and Television Industries.

Directed by BAFTA Scotland award-winner, Hannah Currie (That Joke Isn’t Funny Anymore, Not Your Average Influencers) Working Differently celebrates diversity, inclusion, and the wealth of talent that Neurodivergent people bring to the creative industries.

Through a series of honest and insightful interviews with a range of mostly ND contributors - from entry level crew through to established industry figures - the film welcomes their personal experiences, and looks at the way ND people can think, operate, and reach goals in ways that can differ to a neurotypical person.

Commissioned by Screen Scotland, Working Differently was created and co-produced by The Portal Studios and Blazing Griffin Pictures, with partnership support from BECTU Vision, demonstrating the collaborative effort to elevate Neurodivergent representation within the industry.
