It’s been an exciting couple of weeks here at BFI Future Film! We have selected our documentary bursary winners! In addition to this, our video artists had their first meeting yesterday, with each beginning to plan their project and having a one-on-one session with our expert Phillip Warnell. The talented young people were also awarded their £400 (€450) cheques. The winners are pictured in the image.
We’ve been working hard scouting documentaries from the UK, and have now reached the 35 mark on our Vimeo Channel, with more to be uploaded by the weekend, so keep an eye open…
Finally, we’ve been busy planning away, and have some very interesting events lined up at the BFI Southbank over the next couple of months. On the 25th/26th/27th June we are excited to be host the Refuge in Films festival 2011, a three day festival full of films, interactive workshops and discussions to explore issues of displacement, refuge and migration.

Then on the 9th July we are presenting How to Be Funny, looking at new ways to break into comedy writing for film, TV and the internet. We’ll be joined by our friends at the London Comedy Writers Festival to bring a whole host of practical ways you can write for comedy and get your work in front of an audience. There will also be a showcase of work by some of the hottest young comedy writers including our friends Kool Beanz Productions.
