NEW SHORTS FESTIVAL LAUNCHED

This year will see the launch of the first 50/50 Film Festival.
The festival covers shorts, commercials, music promos and creative film. To be hosted both in London and Manchester this event promises to offer a whole new interpretation of the film festival.
The winning entrants in each category will not only win a cash prize, but also the backing to produce a further piece of work, on behalf of the sponsor for the category that they have won.
50/50 is due to be officially launched at the end of January 2002.
