YOUNG people have the chance to make their own film this summer.

Swanley Technical College in St Mary’s Road is hosting the film-making course for 11 to 18-year-olds from August 23 to 27.

Staff from the Stag Community Arts Centre in Sevenoaks will run the programme, which includes lessons on writing, acting, directing and production.

At the end of the week a professional film company will edit students’ films and they will be screened at the centre in Sevenoaks in autumn, with DVDs of the pupil’s work also available.

A course spokesman said: “Students who attended the course last year reported it was the best summer activity they had ever experienced.”
