Our Futures - Filmmakers Workshop

Retro Africa is pleased to invite film creatives to apply for the chance to participate in 'Our Futures', a gamification powered film & arts programme designed by Bounce Cinema & Retro Africa. A free micro film school supported by the British Council, fostering digital exchange between artists from Nigeria and the United Kingdom. 20 film and video artists (10 from the UK and 10 from Nigeria) will take part in a virtual training programme together. The program intends to enhance the learning opportunities available within the Black British and African arts & film industry. Through our online residency program we will provide people with resources and opportunities to benefit from a global art network and encourage digital exchange. Participants and audiences will complete a series of innovative tasks to unlock training opportunities, exclusive content & virtual experiences. This is to increase participation & digital exchange between artists & communities across the UK & Nigeria.
