Video production firm founders join grand jury for Birmingham Film Festival

Matt Cooke and Vince Lund, founders of Popcorn&Co. Video, have been appointed to the Grand Jury for Birmingham Film Festival 2025.

Now in its ninth year, Birmingham Film Festival has become a key fixture in the city’s creative calendar by championing independent film while building strong ties with the wider business community.

As Grand Jury members, Matt and Vince will help evaluate and award standout entries across this year’s official selection, drawing on their experience in broadcast television, post-production, and brand storytelling.

With an increasing focus on creative industries as engines of innovation and economic growth, the festival is continuing to expand its partnership opportunities for local organisations.

Businesses looking to connect with new audiences, align with creative industries, or support the next generation of talent are encouraged to explore sponsorship and event collaborations.

Birmingham Film Festival 2025 will take place this November at Millennium Point.
