After five highly successful years Scottish Students on Screen is moving to Glasgow for the 2005 edition.

For the last five years SSoS has been held at Dundee Contemporary Arts (DCA). Before giving details of the '05 event we would like to give a HUGE thankyou to all at DCA for providing such a great venue, invaluable expertise, and helping to make the event such a success.

Evaluation

As the event has now run for five years the project has been independently evaluated to determine how well Scottish Students on Screen has met its aims and objectives. The evaluation report can be downloaded here.

SSoS '05

On 11 March 2005 the event will be held in Glasgow at The Centre for Contemporary Arts (CCA), and The Glasgow Film Theatre (GFT).

The CCA will be the hub for the event, and throughout the day there will be another great line-up of sessions, workshops, demonstrations, careers advice and the chance for you to meet and make contacts with industry professionals, your fellow students and the newest talent.

While in the GFT you can see the very best of new student work from Scottish colleges and universities, selected by our professional juries.

Put the date in your diary now! - 11 March 2005!
