Collabor8te, the short filmmaking scheme, was founded by Rankin Film Productions in 2011, alongside The Bureau and Dazed TV, and launched at the Edinburgh International Film Festival 2011. Championing talent from the UK and Ireland, Collabor8te is an exciting new platform for short films, developing and funding scripts through to production and distribution.  This preview screening will look at the projects of three Collabor8tors from Year 1; writer Rory Alexander Stewart, writer and director Lewis Metcalfe and writer James Pout.  The screening will be followed by a panel discussion with two executive producers from the Collabor8te scheme in conversation with Rory, Lewis and James.
