OPEN CALL FOR FILMMAKERS
The Trust believes in the value of exploratory thinking and making that established the trail, and strives to nurture the relationship between the forest and the imagination.
The key aims of the film are to :
Celebrate the uniqueness of the Forest of Dean and the Sculpture Trail.
Raise awareness of the artist-led nature of the commissions and the founding principles of collaboration and experimentation by the Forest of Dean Sculpture Trail.
Share publicly why and how the Sculpture Trail came to be using the Trust’s extensive archive housed at the University of Gloucestershire
Why are we commissioning a film?
We want the film to play a part in raising the profile of the Sculpture Trail as a pioneering early supporter of visual and environmental art and share the connections between the artists, community and the Forest of Dean. By utilising our extensive archive we hope the film will unearth hidden stories of the Sculpture Trail not previously shared.
When is the deadline?
The deadline for submissions is 23:59 on 13 June 2024
