Mabel heads to BFI residential course!
Congratulations to Mabel Fletcher for gaining places on the British Film Institute National Residential course.
Here students learn how to use an incredible range of equipment, work alongside professionals in the film industry, and meet young adults who share their passion for cinema.
The course is split into two different components. The first part is an in-person residential where students learn a range of important skills and even make a film together, where they undertake different roles. The second element is comprised of an online weekend course.
Mabel will work as a producer while on set and commented 'I'm particularly excited for the actual filmmaking as I think this will be so much fun and such an amazing experience!".
When asked what she wanted to do in the future, she said, "I definitely want to work in the film industry, and this course will give me the skills and connections I need to help make my way into the industry."
Well done! This is an incredible achievement. We hope you enjoy your time on this exciting residential course.
