Lights, camera, action it's time to get ready for the
Raglan Arts Film Festival Awards 2019
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
RAFFAs reeling in local filmmakers
The Raglan Arts Film Festival Awards is celebrating 10 years this year of exceptional local filmmaking talent.
Nominations are now open to all ages – all you need is your imagination and a device for filming.
Old School Arts Centre manager Jacqueline Anderson says the RAFFAs were created to recognise the extraordinary talent of local actors, screenwriters, editors, producers and directors interested in making movies.
“It’s always a great pleasure for the RAFFA judges to view the films that are entered and we seem to have more entrants each year and the calibre of the films keeps improving.”
Up-and-coming talent will also have
the opportunity to attend a filmmaking workshop held at the
Old School Arts Centre to learn new movie making
skills.
“We are really lucky to have a wealth of
filmmaking knowledge in our community willing to share their
skills to our new talent,” she says.
The film must be associated with Raglan Whaingaroa - either the filmmakers, production crew or actors, or part of the film must have been shot or edited in Raglan.
Awards and prizes -
including cash and vouchers - will be presented at a Red
Carpet Awards night on Saturday, September 28 at the Raglan
Town Hall.
