Studio NI runs Internet facilities on e-mail and social media that allow artistes to network about projects and to promote events. The Group is based on user-generated content. Studio NI also runs regular events that allow artistes to network in person. Studio NI runs an annual festival called the "Titans of Ulster Writing and Media
Festival". This is a series of events focused around five contests - Short story writing, illustration, short film, music video and costuming. The contestants are allowed access to facilities to improve their skills, and given an outlet to express their talent in public. The short stories and illustrations are published in a book, the films and music videos are shown at venues around Northern Ireland, and the costume contest is held at a public pageant called the "Masquerade Parade". The final selection from the shortlisted entries is by audience choice.
