Tablelands Pocket Film Festival

Each year we run workshops to teach some aspect of pocket film making. We have taught participants how to translate their ideas into a story board

Project: Film Screenings

We have three years’ worth of entries in the Pocket Film Festival, and some of those stories are well worth seeing again.
