Film and Video Workshop
The Film and Video Workshop is an educational charity founded fourteen years ago. The organisation's objective is the education of adults, children and young people in the art of film, video and other types of media. We aim to work particularly with those people who are in need by reason of disability, age or economic circumstance.
The company has grown steadily since its formation and is now the largest producer of child and young people directed moving image work in the United Kingdom. Many of the animations we have helped produce have been shown worldwide in international film festivals and some have won prestigious awards. Each year we work with approximately 1000 film makers and produce 150 pieces of moving image work. Past clients include the BFI, BBC, Film Council, Southbank Centre, British Museum and the Hackney Empire. Recent premiere screenings have been held at the London Imax Cinema and the Odeon West End.
In addition we are a UK On-Line Centre and provide adult training, specialising in the creative use of digital technology. The current courses selection includes four video production courses, digital photography, image manipulation, special effects, animation and open access sessions. The media centre is open 6 days a week with over 80 weekly users.
