Learning

Our annual one-day festival, Scottish Students on Screen, is packed full of screenings, workshops and masterclasses offering film students everything they need to know about getting into the industry.

As well as providing invaluable learning tools, the event, run in partnership with Scottish Screen, is designed to foster stronger links between education and the moving image industries.
