SFF / SSFF Annual Report 2021
Name: Slow Short Film Festival / Slow Film Festival Charity Number: 1178283 Public Address: Warren House, The Warren, Mayfield, TN20 6UB Trustees: Chris Edgar Lyle, Peter Edmund Treherne, Jack Barrinton Durman, Nathaniel Barrington Durman
Charity Structure:
Chris Lyle acts as Chairman and advises Peter Treherne (Festival Director) on how to arrange the various festivals and events that the charity runs. The other trustee members, Jack Durman and Nat Durman, organise the marketing, publicity and projection for the various events. All four trustees were the initial trustees that founded the charity. No further trustees have been added.
Activities and Objectives:
Due to COVID, and understanding the difficulty of running an in person festival during 2021, we focused on delivering a much cheaper online event that would improve our accessibility but would not require additional fund raising.
Achievements and Performance:
The online festival improved the charity’s accessibility and permitted the charity to better access isolated communities with little cultural infrastructure. Over 10,000 individuals were able to access the streamed content during the online festival.
Financial Review:
Due to our previous healthy incomes from 2019 and 2020, we had enough available in our bank account to cover the website and video distribution platforms that we regularly use for sharing film with the British Public.
Our big expenditure was on the Islands Film Festival, made in collaboration with Wen Hsu and the British Council. Wen Hsu, from Taiwan, was the lead on the festival, and secured funding from the British Council to cover all translation and social media costs. The Slow Film Festival contributed £1,168.50 to cover all the screening fees for the UK filmmakers.
No funds are held by a custodian trustee.
