Over a Decade Inside Devons Biggest Celebration of Diversity
A core part of the festival itself. Wiseman Productions has documented Exeter Respect Festival every year since 2014, and has been a listed in-kind sponsor since at least 2019 - part of the festival's core supporter group, not just a company hired for the weekend.
We support the festival in-kind because inclusion isn't something we just film - it's something we believe in, and lending our time each year is how we help make sure that message reaches further than just the people in the park that weekend.
All Different, All Equal
Exeter Respect is the city's annual celebration of diversity, using performing and creative arts to engage the wider community in saying no to racism and all forms of prejudice.
Built on the belief that prejudice comes from fear rooted in ignorance, and the way through it is mutual understanding and cultural sharing. Since 2009, the main event has run as a two-day festival at Belmont Park, drawing around 20,000 attendees a year.
A Network Built Over a Decade
Wiseman Productions not only help build a network of loyal festival attendees and a community of social media followers, they also create content that helps recruit volunteers for the event.
A Model Worth Replicating
This partnership stands as a model of how creative collaboration, rooted in shared values, can leave a lasting imprint on a community - and on the people who help shape it. visibility that extends well beyond the festival weekend itself, carried year-round via Vimeo and social media.
