Creative industries re-awaken Belfast’s skills-based heritage
Northern Ireland’s burgeoning film industry based in Belfast’s Titanic Quarter is being kept afloat by the skills and ingenuity of people working in the creative industries.
A host of local designer-makers and artisans have been signed up by major film companies to make everything from costumes, jewellery, film sets to weird and wonderful props.
This explosion of creativity and skill has been made possible by public funding of the arts including schemes such as the Arts Council of Northern Ireland’s Creative Industries Innovation Fund.
