(MENAFN- Khaleej Times) If your kids love movies then The Children's International Film Festival (CIFF), is the perfect place for them to learn about the business. Returning for its third year, CIFF will commence on April 28 and conclude with a Gala Awards Ceremony on May 7.
Filmmaking and photography is an amazing way for young people to not only get in touch with their creativity but learn how to work within a team. This year, CIFF conducted over 15 Nikon School Filmmaking Workshops for over 800 students across the UAE. These workshops educated students on key skills that you would need working in the film industry from the pre-production, production and post-production of films.
This year CIFF has also introduced a new category in the filmmaking competition based on Dubai Customs' IPR Department theme of "Together for a better protection". As part of this new category, CIFF conducted a unique 3-day film-making camp for students from Kings' School - Al Barsha. The camp aimed at enhancing media literacy, where the students got an opportunity during the camp to create their own short film, The Flames. It will definitely be interesting to check out the festival and what stories children of the UAE are sharing with the world.
