Abstract
This paper explores the structure of the natural history film-making cluster in Bristol in the light of wider theories concerning thenature and importance of clusters in urban growth. After reviewing relevant literature concerning clustering in the cultural industries,and an overview of the cultural industries sector in Bristol, the paper proceeds to analyse this particular cluster in moredetail. The analysis proceeds by examining in turn the origins and stages of cluster gowth, different aspects of cluster depth, linkagesbetween the local cluster and the global economy, institutional thickness and cluster support, and the current dynamics of change.The final section relates the findings back to questions of cluster definition and local policy initiatives.
