BFI Short Course

We’ve been location scouting! 

The young filmmakers on TAPE’S BFI Film Academy Short Course have been busy developing the script for their short film. There are no spoilers, but it’s a powerful story and looks great! 

Last week, the group had the chance to explore the backstage dressing rooms at Venue Cymru in Llandudno. We had a guided tour, took some reference footage, and got a sense of the space available to us. 

A huge thanks to Venue Cymru for their accommodation, we’ll be back again next week to begin filming!
