The Oswestry Young Film-Makers Project aimed at 12 16 year olds will run from late October through to March offering a series of masterclasses and the opportunity for young film-makers to work alongside local businesses to create bespoke cinema advertisements that can be shown on the big screen before feature films at kinokulture's new 79 seat digital cinema.
It is hoped that this project will support young people to gain new skills in film-making as well as encouraging them to work creatively with local independent business owners and community groups.
As with previous film-making workshops, kinokulture will offer young film-makers the opportunity to learn from professionals within the film industry.
