Praise For The Festival
“Professional, heartwarming and planting seeds for the future in
so many ways.”
- Tim Flood, Filmmaker
“This is a great film festival for young people, it does not try
to be grand or exclusive. It encourages all the young people it
can reach, to take part and learn something or take something
positive away.”
- Lee Vann Wakelin, Filmmaker
“All the young people I've worked with, whose films have
featured in the festival, really get a lot out of taking part.
Well done to everyone involved in making this a highlight of the
year in film education in Scotland.”
- Kevin Cameron, Filmmaker
First class. Not just a film festival. Two days crammed full of
lots of young film students taking advantage of high quality
workshops prior to the awards. Brilliant idea.”
- Graham Kitchener, Filmmaker
