REEL TO REAL INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL FOR YOUTH
announces a film mentorship opportunity
for grade 11 & 12 students

“Your image of the Future”

Grade 11 & 12 students from high schools across the Lower Mainland are invited to submit applications and a copy of their work to the Reel to Real International Film Festival for Youth. From these submissions twenty students will be selected to attend an intensive Advanced Video Production Mentorship Program at the Pacific Cinémathèque (PCP). The course will be modeled on the Pacific Cinémathèque’s Masters’ video production program.

The Mentorship Program will begin with a 2-day script workshop February 3rd & 5th. Participating youth will bring story ideas and will work closely with the PCP team of instructor/artists to craft shooting scripts, storyboards, and production plans. Once complete, the youth teams will spend the next two weeks on the their own time and working with camera equipment available through their schools to shoot their productions. The PCP staff will be available for consultation on shooting, lighting and sound techniques, as well as location and acting advice. When the production phase of each project is complete, the PCP will invite the youth teams back to work with their staff and digital editing equipment from February 16th-19th to complete their videos. This phase of the project will allow participating students to expand and develop their abilities as editors and sound designers and will ensure high quality digital video productions result.

Videos produced as part of this intensive mentorship initiative will have the following theme: “Your image of the Future.”
