Appleton Academy Students Premiere Films at NSMM Exhibition
Vital Culture UK-led workshop shines in ReelBFD: Digital Arts, Bradford Stories
We’re proud to announce that the films, posters, and interviews created by students from Appleton Academy during our February 2025 filmmaking workshop are now featured in the ReelBFD: Digital Arts, Bradford Stories exhibition at the National Science and Media Museum.
The exhibition, running from 14 June to 7 September 2025, celebrates the creativity of Bradford’s young digital storytellers. Our three-day workshop—delivered by Tanya Vital as part of the Bradford Digital Creatives programme—introduced students to scriptwriting, storyboarding, filming on iPads, audio editing, poster design, and creative direction.
“This wasn’t about expensive kit or flashy effects—it was about showing students they already have what they need to tell powerful stories.”
This project was delivered in collaboration with Born in Bradford, NSMM, and Bradford 2025, supported by Arts Council England and Bradford Council.
