BFI

Make a Silent Movie 2

Hay Festival 2012, 
The BFI National Archive is home to thousands of films made in Britain before the emergence of sound in 1929, but what are the ideal ingredients of a silent film? Families are invited to pick up a camera to make their own shorts with the BFI’s Joanna van der Meer. Pluck and ingenuity essential.
 
Duration 120 mins. Families
 
Please bring a memory stick if you wish to take your films home with you. Films will be posted on Youtube following the festival.
