As part of #Livingston60 celebrations local schools were asked to make a film. Today at Howden Park Centre the school films were screened. Delighted to say that our @StMargaretsAcad film was awarded Best Film! We had no idea there would be prizes so lovely surprise #Filmmaking
I'm in the Sky Up Academy Studios advert. My Higher Media class were absolute pros! #FilmEducation #MediaLiteracy #SkyAcademyStudios @StMargaretsAcad
I appear to be in an advert! I can't say I enjoy watching and listening to myself 😬 What I can say is that it's all true - Sky Up Academy Studios @SkyGroup @SkyUK is an amazing educational experience 👍 #FilmEducation #MediaLiteracy

Great photos! Thank you!
Fantastic morning at the cinema with the best ceiling, The Hippodrome! Brilliant screening of documentary film #OffTheRails followed by a Q&A with @GrantKeir Thanks to @HippodromeFilm & Grant & to the teachers & pupils who attended @StMagsMedia #IntoFilmFestival
In addition to taking young people to this great event, got to see my @intofilm_scot pal Katie *in the flesh* for the first time in far too long! So this was a win on many levels 🎬 #IntoFilmFestival #IntoFilmEduAmbs
A great morning @intofilm_edu #IntoFilmFestival watching the documentary feature #OffTheRails Thank you @intofilm_scot for a really interesting Q&A with producer Grant Keir. The Bo'ness is a great venue too #LoveCinema #LoveFilm #IntoFilmEduAmbs
A book I read which was instantly cinematic and I'm desperate to see an adaptation! Neil Jordan, no less, is attached to it but still lingering in development. One of the best books I've *ever* read.
In honour of #BookWeekScotland I am choosing a favourite YA novel every day. First up it's Skippy Dies by Paul Murray. One of the funniest books I've ever read. It will make you laugh, it will make you cry and you will absolutely fall in love with the main characters.
