Birds Eye View are now recruiting for our 2011 festival!
Set to be another outrageously brilliant year. If you’d like to be involved in the exciting process of making the festival happen, you’re in the right place. Read on for current opportunities…
The RTS is holding an evening event aimed at scriptwriters:
“How does a writer get a comedy script from their brain onto a tv screen? How does a producer sell that script to a commissioner? What exactly is a commissioner looking for in a script? And just what is it that a channel controller does, exactly? Guided by Richard Bacon, our extremely talented and beautiful panel attempt to answer these and other questions.”
Amazon has launched Amazon Studios, a website for aspiring filmmakers and screenwriters. The concept is simple: allow those aspiring filmmakers and screenwriters to upload their work, collaborate and obtain feedback from others, and take the cream of the crop forward for possible production.
I managed to get into TV through a training scheme last year and it’s running again this year. The scheme is run by Middlesex Uni but it’s open to anyone. I think the closing date is 26th November so they may need to hurry with their applications but it is worth it!
My name is Matthew Volp, a 1st year doing Media Production. I wanted to let you know that my film, “A Mind At Peace”, that I directed in my final year at college, has been selected for the Underexposed section of the Salford Film Festival on Wedneesday 17th November. It was also shown at the launch of the festival on Wednesday 10th.
Latest news from Sarah Barrow: We just heard that it WON the award for best film in that section. Many congratulations Matthew. [21 November]
One of our students – John Stacey (Audio Production level 2) was involved in these KISS100 FM/University of Lincoln films (scroll down a little – there are three thumbnail images – click to view.)
Audio versions of these have been played many times on Kiss100 Radio and these are on their website along with a competition.
