Description

Do you have what it takes to help engage kids and their families more fully in cinema? Then this training opportunity may be for you!

'Build Your Own Compere' is a new opportunity offered by Flatpack: Assemble, a project that aims to create a more connected and visible film community in the West Midlands. We aim to increase the number of screenings tailored towards young viewers, and 'Build Your Own Compere' is the next step in achieving this.

These comperes will go into venues and act as the middle-ground between the kids and what they see on the screen, by facilitating activities like crafts or group games. This activity combined with 30 minutes of animated short films provided by Flatpack creates a fun and focused environment for the kids, and offers a little more interactivity than a traditional film screening.

To offer these events to venues, we need to train and skill-up some comperes - and that's where you come in! Flatpack: Assemble have teamed up with Birmingham-based theatre company Little Earthquake to provide 2 days of free training for successful applicants, out of whom some will go on to facilitate screenings across the West Midlands.

For more information, and to access the application form, see the blog post on the Flatpack website here.

The deadline for applications is 9am, Friday 6th January 2017.
