SDI is an internationally recognised documentary research centre at Edinburgh College of Art specialised in documentary training, production and distribution. It was set up in 2004. Their films have played at major film festivals, such as Sundance, Cannes, Hotdocs, Tribeca, Full Frame, Silverdocs, IDFA, Cinema du Reel, Vision du Reel, Leipzig and have picked up major awards and nominations. In 2007 they set up SDI Productions Ltd, in order to develop a slate of feature documentaries with some of their Bridging the Gap alumni, and enable ambitious co-productions such as "The New Ten Commandments" with Lansdowne Productions.
