The Glasgow Telly Festival: Meet the filmmakers behind Concrete Jungle

Bringing Concrete Jungle to life was no easy feat. Independently created and self-funded, the project was a labour of love for Anton O'Donnell, who also stars as Jamie McGregor. Balancing two jobs and long hours, Anton worked tirelessly to fund and write the series, driven by a determination to tell this story. Alongside him, a small but dedicated crew faced numerous challenges, from last-minute rewrites to unexpected setbacks like injuries and the disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite these hurdles, the team remained committed to realizing their vision.

The screening of Concrete Jungle will be followed by a Q&A with Anton and Jonathon Tait from STV. If you are dreaming of getting into TV and don't want to wait for someone to give you permission, you won't want to miss this.
