Barrington Paul Robinson

Barrington Paul Robinson is a creative producer who quit his 15-year job working in finance to follow his passion for the screen arts. Named as a Screen International Star of Tomorrow in 2006 and one of the UK Film Council’s Breakthrough Brits two years later, Barrington has built up a catalogue of short films that have been screened at film festivals around the world. He is also a BFI Insight Producer (2020-2021), BFI NETWORK x BAFTA Crew participant (2020-2021) and an Edinburgh International Film Festival Talent Lab alumnus (2012).

After producing several short films over the past 15-plus years, in 2021, Barrington broke into high-end television, co-producing four episodes and producing the final episode of the BBC’s The Responder (2022). He currently has two more shorts in post, and has just finished producing three episodes of Sky’s A Town Called Malice, due for broadcast in 2023.

Now living in north-west England, Barrington has been working with exciting local talent to develop film and television ideas through his own production company, Redbag Pictures. Equally, after co-founding and delivering the BFI Network’s Creative Producers Lab for the North and Midlands Film Hubs, he is helping to build a stronger producer network in both regions.
