Mediabox and First Light Movies-Funding Opportunities
Screen East would like to make you aware of funding opportunities that are available for schools within the E2BN region.
Mediabox is a fund that offers disadvantaged 13-19 year olds the opportunity to create their own media projects, from film and radio to interactive games and a range of digital media platforms. It enables young people to gain new skills, express their opinions and get their voices heard. Mediabox particularly wants to improve the portrayal of young people in the media.
The Department of Children, Schools and Families have invested £8million in Mediabox over 2009 -11. It is managed by a consortium consisting of First Light Movies, Media Trust, Skillset the UK Film Council and the Regional Screen Agencies.
The new funding is split into five different schemes with a range of offers from £500 to £40,000.
