The Shiny Showcase heads to Edinburgh
)
Last week the Shiny Showcase celebrated emerging filmmaking talent in Edinburgh with their latest showcase.
The Shiny Showcase arrived in Edinburgh on 5 March, bringing together directors, producers and creatives from across Scotland & the North for an evening celebrating bold new filmmaking talent.
Hosted by LS Productions, the showcase featured a curated screening of standout short-form work from emerging directors working across commercials, music videos, documentary, animation and drama.
As with all Shiny events, the programme championed diverse voices, with at least 70% of the work coming from directors from under-represented backgrounds. The evening provided an opportunity for the regional creative community to discover new talent, watch exciting short-form work and connect with directors shaping the future of commercial filmmaking.
The evening featured a curated selection of short-form work from emerging directors across a range of genres including commercials, music videos, spec ads, documentary, drama and animation. All films screened were under five minutes and selected for their originality, craft and creative voice.
All of the films featured in the showcase will now go forward into judging for the Shiny Awards, taking place later this month.
On the night, several directors from the programme were recognised by our partners with prizes and opportunities supporting the next stage of their careers.
