UK universities have won more than £500,000 in European funding to encourage collaboration between film schools. Three of the ten successful bids were led by UK higher education institutions: the London Film School, Napier University (part of Skillset Screen Academy Scotland) and the National Film and TV School. These institutions are all part of the Skillset Screen Academy Network.
The MEDIA 2007 funding will be used to support a range of projects that enhance education, networking and the mobility of students and trainers in Europe.
