For this year’s program focusing on UK short film, we will deliver a broad selection of films spanning documentary, animation, drama and other genres. We hope you enjoy these top quality works from the UK. Photographer Jason Bell’s directorial debut “Hollywood Portfolio,” created for the magazine “Vanity Fair,” will be shown as a special screening.

Hollywood Portfolio
UK
Jason Bell/UK/6:57/Drama/2015
The British invasion of Hollywood is upon us! Fashioned like a World War II-era newsreel, complete with barking narrator and vintage footage, this is a film in three parts. See the Brits preparing for war, going off to America to infiltrate the film industry, and, finally, assuring victory. This is the first time that Vanity Fair has created a short film specially for the Hollywood Portfolio.

The Secret World of Foley
UK
Daniel Jewel/UK/13:00/Documentary/2014
'The Secret World of Foley' takes us on a journey into the little known world of Foley Artists, who bring films to life by adding sound effects in post-production. We follow a multi-award winning two person team of Foley Artists and watch as they work together to bring to life a film about one morning in the life of a fishing village on the English coast. With their perfectly timed and precisely judged sound effects they transform the film as they interpret every sound detail, using props from their vast props store. This film shines a light on a little known film art form and is a testament to the magic and wonder of Cinema itself.
