How can you use archival film to inspire and inform new stories? The Make Film History project makes archive films from the BBC, BFI National Archive, Irish Film Institute, and Northern Ireland Screen available for educational use by young filmmakers.
This event will demonstrate the adventurous potential of archive footage to develop fresh work, and will provide crucial insight from filmmakers, curators and the Make Film History team, all of whom are experienced in working with archival footage. Panellists will include Shane O’Sullivan (Make Film History), Paul Wright (Director of Arcadia) , Emily Munro (Scotland's Moving Image Archive) and Shona Thomson (producer/curator).
