45 SECOND FILM BRIEFS
You have a choice of two briefs to make your short film to. Each will be discussed in the BBC Academy film making workshops over the 3 days of Digital Cities Virtual.
Brief One: ‘Extra-Ordinary Tours.
Take us on a tour of your community / where you live.
Showcase places of interest, discuss personal memories or uncover the hidden histories in your local area.
During recent times have you wandered and wondered about your local area? You don’t have to walk far to see a story on every street corner, in the park, woods or even on your walk to the shops.
Create a 45 second film in which you could unearth the past, explore your connections to the local area or discover places new to you.
Tell us your story Inside45 seconds!
Brief Two: ‘Time In Our Hands’
Tell us the interesting or inventive ways you spent lockdown. How did you learn new skills, keep up with activities or stay sane and active?
It might be you made a home gym on the kitchen table with bags of flour for weights, picked up a pencil for the first time to get your creative ideas down on paper, became a master chef or even started learning an instrument. It could even be the time you spent with your household pet…
