Oska Bright Film Festival 2022

Three films made by pupils at Woodlands Meed have been accepted into the Oska Bright Film Festival 2022.

‘Get the Baguette’ and ‘Rosie’s Dream’ were made by a performing arts, music and media class collaboration and the other film ‘Infiltration at Bakura’ was created by Jake, who created an incredible stop motion animation from Lego.

 

Arts Lead Teacher Gabrielle Woerndl was delighted with her pupil’s success

‘I am so thrilled that our film maker’s effort have been rewarded by being chosen for the Oska Bright Film Festival this year.  Our students have created some brilliant work and to be part of the festival to share this with other film makers is just fantastic.  To be chosen from 600 entries is a huge achievement for all those involved’

With less than 5% of disabled people working in the UK film industry, the Oska Bright Film Festival, is driven to make change happen. Working internationally with industry partners and funded by the BFI, the BAFTA qualifying Oska Bright Film Festival, promotes accessible screenings, runs training for venues and develops skills for aspiring filmmakers.

Oska Bright Film Festival puts people with Learning Disabilities, Autism or Aspergers where they should be, on the big screen. They show bold, exciting and different work from voices you might not have heard before.

  

The festival is managed and delivered by a team of ten learning disabled artists, all passionate about film and exhibition. It is presented by the award winning learning disability art organisation Carousel, which brings learning disability arts to the front.

The Oska Bright Film Festival runs from 16-22 March 2022, in Brighton and across the UK and online.
