Get making films with your pupils….and then enter them into the Leeds Young Filmmakers Golden Owls Awards 2018!

2.30pm – 5pm, Tuesday 10th October 2017

Last year, we ran some film training, showing teachers how to get making films with their pupils, using iPads and the iMovie app. A number of the schools who attended  the training, not only entered their pupils’ films into the Leeds Young Filmmakers Golden Owl Awards, but some were shortlisted and some even won!

This year, we are delighted to be offering schools First Shot Filmmaking, a half day training course designed to develop your skills and confidence in making films with your pupils.  If you already have some films that you’ve made, then you can submit your entry to the Leeds Young Filmmakers Golden Owl Awards 2018.

For information about the First Steps Filmmaking training, please see the First Shot Filmmaking CPD Flyer 2017 To book your place, please visit Leeds for Learning.
