MP for Norwich North, Chloe Smith, has called for local amateur film makers to enter FILM THE HOUSE, a national competition that celebrates up-and-coming amateur film producers, directors and script writers across the UK.

Film lovers of all ages are urged to get their creative juices flowing, and submit their amateur films to FILM THE HOUSE.   Chloe will nominate her top film from the area for the national competition, which aims to also raise awareness of the importance of intellectual property rights, film and the creative industries.

Founded by Mike Weatherley MP and supported by the British film industry, FILM THE HOUSE gives entrants the chance to win a screening of their film to film industry executives at the House of Commons.

Chloe comments:

 “FILM THE HOUSE is a great opportunity for aspiring film makers of any age looking to find a way into the industry. I am excited to see the films that the aspiring film makers of Norwich can come up with, and hope to see as many submissions from the City as possible.”

Professor John Last, Principal of Norwich University College of the Arts comments:

“Norwich University College of the Arts warmly welcomes the “Film the House” competition, which offers a showcase for students to have their work shown nationally. This will highlight the creative talent of film students in Norwich and across the UK as well as reminding us all of the economic contribution made to our economy by the Film Industry.”
