British Film Institute (BFI) to partner with Nintendo

The British Film Institute is partering with Nintendo to deliver some exciting new 3D content projects.

To celebrate this partnering, those of you with a Nintendo 3DS will be able to take part in a 3D short film competition using the inbuilt 3DS camera.

 

 

You will be awarded on the use of imagination, showcasing the still evolving  art of 3D videography.

 

Winners will have the opportunity to have their work shown in front of many important film industry professionals. This will happen at the Nintendo Gala screening at the 56th BFI London Film Festival in partnership with American Express, in October 2012.

 

Nintendo UK Managing Director David Yarnton said of the partnership: “We are extremely excited to be working with the BFI to provide a platform for future 3D film-making talent to showcase their work.”

 

BFI Chief Executive, Amanda Nevill commented: “The priority for the BFI is all about the future – supporting new ideas and innovative thinking – which is why we are so thrilled to enter into this new partnership with Nintendo, an organisation at the forefront of the games industry.

 

More details on this partnership with the British Film Institute and what it will bring to the table will be recieved in coming months.

 

Details on the competition will also arrive shortly and we will keep you posted!

 

As well as writing/proof reading for the site, I dabble in 3D modeling and music making.
