M: Today we’re pleased to have Fatima Johnson who is the organiser of the Aldbourne Film Festival on the show. Welcome, Fatima.
W: Hello.
M: Can you tell us a bit about the background to the festival and what it brings to the town?
W: Well the festival was started in 1996 by the then Mayor of Aldbourne, Joanne Smith. She wasn’t a film-maker herself — she’d actually been a very energetic tourism development officer for many years — but Aldbourne had run a classical music festival which had been becoming less and less popular in recent years... Joanne was looking around for something to replace it and to use funds allocated to it to promote something which local people can enjoy.
M: Great. So tell us about the festival nowadays...
W: Well, it’s held in the last two weeks of August every year and short films from all over the world are shown in three places — in the theatre and our two cinemas. Several films are shown in one performance and the whole thing lasts about ninety minutes. Tickets are very reasonably priced — under twelves used to get in for fifty pee but now we charge just one pound which is still very good value! One pound fifty for students and two pounds fifty for everyone else. Performances are advertised all around town and also on our website www.aldbournefest.com. If you’re interested in attending any performances you can buy tickets online of course and you can also get them in the library, which is right next to the main shopping area— I’m afraid this year, tickets are no longer available from either of the two cinemas because of restricted opening times.
M: I understand you also run a film competition?
W: Yes, for under eighteen. We have a different theme every year. Last year, for example, the theme was ’Future Planet’ and the winner was a ten-minute documentary encouraging youngsters to be more aware of environmental issues, focusing on getting school kids to cycle to school instead of going by car. This year the theme is ’Sporting Nation’ — so there’ll also be lots of ideas to choose from. Now we’re always on the look-out for new local talent so if you live in the Aldbourne area and are under eighteen, you should have a go. We have an excellent prize every year, donated by local businesses — shops, hotels etc. This year you can win a hi-spee movie camera worth over eight hundred pounds. Application forms are on the website and the deadline for sending in your film to enter the competition is the last day of July. It’s May now so you’ll have the whole of June to be working on it!
