SCREENTIME
Established in autumn 2021, SCREENTIME began as an initiative inviting young people aged 18 – 30 to gain first hand experience in programming cinema and producing screenings for an audience. The group of young programmers attended workshops ran by Cinema Nation CIC – a queer-led Merseyside based research and innovation Community Interest Company that explores, supports, champions and encourages all forms of film exhibition. The Programmers were introduced to key concepts of exhibition, licensing, marketing and audience development. Through this process, the young programmers have curated a series of 5 screenings that centre around the joy and challenges of community gathering and collective identities, and referencing the communal experience of lockdown. The slate celebrates the joy of music as a way to connect with others and will be screened at local music venue The Radio Rooms.
Since then, SCREENTIME has continued to provide filmmaking workshops to young people within the Northumberland region.
This hands-on workshop is perfect for anyone eager to dive into the art of filmmaking for the first time.
