Each year WIFT gives the Robin Laing Scholarship to an outstanding student at the Film School. This year's presentation will be on Wednesday July 2 - 6pm arrival for a drink and nibbles, followed by the presentation, then a special screening of the 8 New Zealand shorts entered for the 2014 WIFTI Showcase. We have to select two films to send to WIFTI but the judges felt this year's entries were so strong we should screen them all. Here they are:
The Mobile Meat processing Unit Pr/Wr/Co-dir: Gaylene Barnes
Wide Eyed Wr/Dir: Catherine Bisley Pr: Catherine Fitzgerald
The Silk Pr/Dir: Clare Burgess and Nathalie Boltt
Four Eyes United Club Wr/Dir: Aidee Walker Pr: Morgan Stewart
Charlie Floyd's Visionarium Dir: Emma Schranz Pr: Jaimee Poipoi
Here Now Dir: Chelsie Preston Crayford Ed: Gwen Norcliffe
In Safe Hands Wr/Dir: Jackie van Beek DOP: Ari Wegner
Friday Tigers Dir: Aidee Walker Pr: Julia Parnell
Come and celebrate the work of your fellow WIFT members, meet the 2014 Robin Laing Scholarship winner, and enjoy an evening at the Film School, 86 Vivian Street, Wellington.
