The hotly contested Film Challenge returned to kick off 2020 with 25 Academies taking part!
Each Academy was challenged with devising and shooting a film in 5 weeks with a randomly given genre, prop, costume and line of dialogue. Every Academy proved their creative worth and we had such fun watching the films, from terrifying false teeth and disappearing cars, to crazed clowns and aliens from outer space….
