Young Film-maker

Lights, camera, action!

We know there are many talented young filmmakers out there, all keen to showcase and develop their talents.

Participants will take their ideas from concept to reality by producing a five-minute short film based on their interpretation of the annual brief.

It is the chance for young people to write, edit and direct their own masterpiece!
