A Word from the Executive

How were you first inspired? By a thrilling piece of dialogue? A moving
portrayal? A directorial masterstroke? A faultless evocation of time
and place?

Inspiration comes in many forms. As practitioners in the art forms
of the moving image, we can find it easily in the work of our peers and
predecessors. Many of those works will enthuse and inspire our audiences,
of course. But there is much more we can all offer - every single one of us.

By engaging the public in other ways - in talks, lectures, Q&As,
festivals, workshops and masterclasses - we enhance the understanding
and the enjoyment of our art forms. That’s the very real public benefit
that this Academy can deliver.

Our new Learning & Events strategy promises inspiration for
thousands - perhaps millions. The partnerships, pilot projects, learning
programmes and broadcasts that we’ve been developing will bring insights
and enjoyment to these audiences. At live events and online, through
webcasts and archive material, we’re opening doors to directing, producing,
performing, designing and every kind of craft.

We all have inspiration to offer. So pass it on.
