Into Film has partnered with Digital Arts Box for more than nine years, spanning a diverse range of projects, including delivering in-depth professional development for schools in their area, and numerous standalone projects on an ad hoc basis. They have delivered over 3,000 instances of training in educational settings across the Northwest for Into Film in that period, and the feedback has always been excellent. Evaluation they carry out as part of the projects often cite how inspired teachers feel to embed the film literacy and filmmaking activities they have learnt into their teaching practice. They have delivered across a broad array of topics, adding their own expertise into the mix, and we have always had complete faith in having them represent us.
