Screen Ashford launches Autumn programme

Posted on 3 September 2024

Following the success of the Screen Ashford Summer programme, another season of exciting events and workshops designed to nurture fresh talent in the Ashford returns this Autumn.

Screen Ashford develops skills for people in our borough by providing training to those looking for opportunities to grow within the film, TV and media industry.

The Autumn programme runs throughout September and October and features various exciting events such as Short Film Writing, A Short Film Competition, Industry Workshop Days and Industry Masterclass Interviews. The sessions are hosted at Ashford based businesses including The Ashford Cinema and RG Studios.

It is excellent to see our town centre businesses get on board with Screen South by hosting these events to develop creative opportunities for film and TV enthusiasts in Ashford.

“This is a great opportunity to develop more creative skills at all levels in Ashford. We hope that these initiatives will equip local talent with the skills, connections and confidence necessary to thrive in a dynamic and competitive industry”.

Chris Dixon, Arts & Cultural Industries Manager at Ashford Borough Council

The initiative is a collaboration between Ashford Borough Counci, Screen South and Ashford-based film company Borderpoint Films.
