St John O'Rorke, Chair of the Board of Governors, GBFTE, said: “This programme of events gives the GBFTE an opportunity to reveal insights and ideas from some of the best practitioners of the complex discipline that stands at the heart of the film-making process and is an absolutely essential part of visual story telling.
“The methods may change, but do the thought processes? 50 years is a long time, and with events like these we could easily reach our centenary.
