‘Made In Mole Valley’ Granted London 2012 Inspire Mark Mole Valley District Council’s (MVDC) London 2012 film project, Made In Mole Valley, has been granted the Inspire Mark by the London 2012 Inspire programme. The London 2012 Inspire programme recognises innovative and exceptional projects that are directly inspired by the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games. Made In Mole Valley is centred around celebrating the district’s culture and heritage as part of the 2012 Games. MVDC is asking budding filmmakers to submit short films (3-5 mins) with an Olympic-inspired theme and that feature Mole Valley. They might highlight local culture, be it history, landmarks, arts events, local artists, nature or sport. The films could be fictional, documentary-style, an animation or a music video. They could have a narrative or be experimental. They can also be filmed in a variety of media, such as on mobile phones, digital cameras, webcams, camcorders or professional film equipment. Seb Coe, Chair of the London Organising Committee of the Olympic Games and Paralympic Games said: “Made In Mole Valley is encouraging amateur and professional film makers to fulfil their potential. I am proud that with the help of partners such as Mole Valley District Council, we are delivering our vision to use the power of the Olympic Games and Paralympic Games to boost participation in the arts, film making and finding out more about where you live.”
A panel of judges will select the best films, which will be featured on MVDC’s website www.molevalley.gov.uk and other websites. Films may be submitted until 31 May 2012. For more information and terms and conditions, visit www.molevalley.gov.uk or email arts@molevalley.gov.uk. 92
