COOPERATIVE YOUNG FILM-MAKERS OF THE YEAR

Have you got something to say? An idea for a great movie? An interesting documentary? Or an amusing
comedy? Don’t keep it to yourself. Get together with some friends, share your thoughts and make a film or
video.
Every year, Co-operative Young Film-makers offers you the chance to see your work on the big screen.
For over 30 years the Co-operative has organised a festival for young film-makers, proving how committed
we are to young people and their films. We’ll be holding this year’s festival on Friday 9 and Saturday 10
October at the National Film Theatre.
We’re looking for young film-makers with imagination. Whether you’re already planning a career in the
movies or have never made a film in your life, it doesn’t matter. We want to see films and videos from people
of all abilities and levels of experience.
Now for our rules and suggestions:
 You might be at school or college. Perhaps a member of a youth club or drama group. Maybe just a
group of friends. The only thing we do say is that you have to be less than 21 years old in order to
enter our competition.


 We want to show as many films as we can on the big screen - the briefer the films, the more we can
show. You can say a lot in the six minutes or less that we suggest. Especially if you plan your film in
advance and edit it well.
 You need to supply your own equipment - try borrowing from family and friends. Most types of film
and video are acceptable. Just concentrate on getting the most out of your equipment. Experiment a
bit!
 Think of an interesting storyline. It’ll help to make your work a bit different. We’re really keen to get
films about the environment or international issues. Why not try writing your own music?
Every film and video we receive is looked at by our group of judges. They watch each one from start to
finish, then tell you what they think. This can really help if you are thinking about trying again in twelve
months’ time.
If your film is chosen for screening at the festival - and last year, 50 were - you will get free entry to the
festival, and we will cover any costs, such as your travel. The festival ends with a presentation on stage after
your work is screened.
Get in touch before you start filming and we’ll post you a full information pack. This will include a form
to enter the competition and other details you need to consider.
Don’t forget the competition closing date is Monday 11 May.
