Hi, I’m Emma and I’m 17. I have been selected for Young Film Academy’s Project Paradiso 2025 as a member of the writing crew.
Project Paradiso gives students aged 16-20 the opportunity to collaborate on a short film that will be shot in Italy. This is an incredible opportunity for everyone involved and can provide us a with an excellent gateway into pursuing a career in filmmaking - and your support can help us achieve this.
Writing in particular is something I have always really enjoyed so being chosen as a member of the writing crew for this project means a lot to me and is something I am very grateful for. It will allow me to collaborate with others and improve my writing which will be really beneficial for the future as I hope to carry on in this path.
This is an ambitious all-or-nothing project, meaning if we don’t reach our fundraising goal of £82,000 then the project is not green lit. My individual goal is £1,250. This project means so much to everyone involved, so if you can, please consider donating so we can help realise our goal. Any support is greatly appreciated!
If you are a UK taxpayer, your donations are eligible for Gift Aid. Gift Aid donations are uplifted by HMRC by 25% of each donation, so it’s very significant.
Thank you so much,
Emma :)
