Beginning in the fall of 2011, we will be launching an after school mentor program providing selected students with the opportunity to receive one-on-one guidance from experienced filmmakers, producers, writers, actors, editors, cinematographers, costume designers, set designers, and sound designers.

The program is a year long, and will consist of regular face-to-face meetings (at least six throughout the year, possibly more depending on your mentor’s schedule), email and phone feedback, and one or two occasions to shadow your mentor on the job or participate in their work.

This is a FREE program, but every applicant must have a work-in-progress to submit along with their application, to work on with their mentor throughout the year, and even though we have some equipment, that work in progress may have to be funded by yourself.

A schedule and list of mentors will be announced soon, but in the meantime please send any enquiries to Paul Fischer at paul@magic-reel.org.uk.
