fund and inspire the making of short films by young people, reflecting the diversity of their lives.
"We have enabled almost 7,000 young people between the ages of five and 18 to write, act, shoot and produce over 450 films. Working with filmmakers and organisations, First Light films cover many topics and genres, and make use of accessible digital film technology." They are keen to promote and display their quarterly Newsletter targeted both at adults that work with young filmmakers and at the young under-18 year old filmmakers themselves. If you have any screenings for young people planned (whether as part of your film society programme or not) take a look at www.firstlightmovies.com and especially at the materials they have on offer including bright pdf format newsletters.
