what our students & alumni say about the project...
Daisy Leigh-Phippard
Director
“This initiative not only provides the means for indie filmmakers to fund their projects - something that any UK filmmaker knows is a challenge often harder than making the film itself - but also opens the door to connect with young aspiring creatives and make the story being told so much richer. Through working with BFS students on Shrike, we didn't only fill out our crew with talented and hardworking individuals, we also had an opportunity to pay forward the experience and skills we cultivated stepping into industry”
