The Exposure festival on 23 – 27 November in Manchester this year is well worth checking out if you’re in the sunny north of England. What they say:
This year will be our 15th festival. In the spirit of adolescent discovery we’ve thrown open our doors to any moving image work on any platform, with only two simple rules – under 30 minutes, made whilst a student at a UK educational institution.
exposures is a truly unique festival: its administrative home is at Cornerhouse; its creative heart at Cornerhouse and Urbis; and its body is a collaboration across creative, cultural, commercial and academic organs. Long standing supporters include Corona Extra, University of Salford, BBC, Northwest Vision & Media, Mackinnon & Saunders, and Manchester City Council.Still the only regular UK-wide competitive festival for student film and moving image, exposures is a crucial showcase for new talent and a vital celebration of UK talent development.
Although the call for entries is now closed I thought it’s well worth giving it a shout, more details to be found on their site: exposuresfilmfestival.co.uk
