"Take One Action's focus on empowering local audiences to engage through film with global and environmental injustice is unique in the UK. This work is really, really important."

Bridging the GapThis scheme is open to all filmmakers based in Scotland, and particularly aims to bridge the gap between training/graduation and a first broadcast and those filmmakers who have not made films for the big screen. We are especially interested in filmmakers from diverse and under-represented backgrounds. The initiative will also present a series of public documentary master classes in Edinburgh. Applications for Bridging the Gap will open in early September 2010.
