    Flickers of the Future – A workshop to inspire sustainable lifestyles in filmmaking & find out how to apply for £100k funding

    Watershed

A free half day workshop for filmmakers aged 18 – 29 exploring the role of sustainability in film and inspiring you to enter a film competition to be supported through production with £100,000 funding.

Flickers of the Future calls on young filmmakers to tell a different story – one where humans and planet thrive together. Environmental charity Global Action Plan, alongside Richard Curtis CBE and a host of incredible film experts, environmentalists and futurists, is inviting UK filmmakers who are between the ages of 18- 29 to create a human story of a sustainable future. The winning story will be supported through production with £100k funding and guidance from an Expert Panel.

Global Action Plan and BFI NETWORK are hosting a free half day workshop in the PM Studio at Watershed on November 27th. The workshop will explore the role of sustainability in film and key facets of one planet living. Attendees will be in a strong position to submit high-quality applications to Flickers of the Future.

The fund and workshop are open to filmmakers aged 18 – 29.

Places are limited so please book your free space here.
