Full screen

Every year, RADA produces six short films featuring original, commissioned scripts. A professional director leads the company of final year BA (Hons) Acting and Foundation Degree Technical Theatre students to produce screenplays filmed on location, which are premiered at the annual Film Showcase in the Jerwood Vanbrugh Theatre.

Thanks to the involvement of Warner Bros. Entertainment, this activity has continued to develop, notably to include an increased number of students experiencing both green screen facilities and film craft disciplines, as well as incorporating a greater variety of locations.
