 Big
Arts Week 24 hour Film Challenge in association with Digital Guerrilla
Filmmakers
We have
been thinking of ways in which unmatched schools can still be involved
in Big Arts Week and feel a part of the celebration and think we
may have come up with a challenge for you and this is to make a
short 3 minute film during Big Arts Week as your project.
We are
offering you the chance to take part in the...
Big
Arts Week 24 hour Film Challenge .
How
it works
All
you need is:
•
Access to a Digital Video Camera
– we realise that not all schools will have this equipment but
are confident that some parents at the school may be willing to
lend you theirs for the week.
•
A Computer
•
Access to an e-mail address –
there are set themes that will be sent to you by e-mail on the
morning of 21 st June 2004 to give everyone an equal timeframe
for the week.
•
Some budding filmmaking pupils
•
A supportive member of staff
The challenge
is for a random selection of interested pupils (at least 6) from
the school to make a short film of 3 minutes. The film needs to
be completed during Big Arts Week from idea to final film. The
film can be in any style but themes will be given.
There
may even be the option of having a film director from the Director’s
Guild come and support your efforts.
We
will be providing every school that participates in the challenge
some free editing software, courtesy of ULEAD, as we realise that
this may be the hardest item to source.
This
initiative is being supported by Digital
Guerilla Filmmakers, ULEAD,
The Directors Guild of Great Britain
and Becta. Through this
partnership we can offer a wealth of prizes for a selection of the
films which will be judged by the partnership, which include:
•
editing software
•
regional screenings of short listed films
•
an expenses paid trip to a London Screening for the
overall winning film team + their parents
•
entry to the prestigious BECTA Creativity in Digital
Media Awards 2005
If
your school is interested and you want to find out more please send
an e-mail to info@bigartsweek.com
titled ‘Film Challenge’ and we will send you all the relevant
information and entry to the challenge.
If
you would like to discuss this further then please contact the team
on 020 7654 0023.
We hope
you’re up for the challenge.
