About
These three students at Plymouth College Of Art And Design are three very ambitious young filmmakers and this event is to celebrate their final projects for their course: BA (hons) Photomedia And Design Communications, and to get their talent, raw as it is, to the attention of the local media industry. If you are looking for hard working, talented new blood for the local media, this is where you will find it. The evening is also an opportunity for networking between new and existing media professionals.
We have a great deal of interest from within the film industry - influential people from the Arts Council, BBC, ITV and sky will be an attendance, for example. Out films will then go on to other screenings abroad including at the Apocolipstick nightclub in Hollywood, LA.
Also on show will be the student's portfolios, as well as free VCDs and prints of images from the films.
Synopsis for The Son Of The King
The Son Of The King is a 10-minute drama based on Arthurian legend. In the aftermath of the evil Mordred's overthrow of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table, there is only one danger to the ongoing rule of Mordred and his witch Morganna La Fay, the fact that in a remote moor-land village, live Guinevere and Lancelot, guarding King Arthur's son Corian, with whom Guinevere had been pregnant when banished from Camelot.
Morganna, through the use of witchcraft, discovers the existence of Corian, Mordred orders his death, and the white witch Lady Aviana is sent by the spirit of Merlin to conduct Corian, Guinevere and Lancelot safely to the coast, to escape to Brittany. As Corian is rushed to safety the witches battle to outwit each other, Morganna to discover and kill Corian, and Aviana to protect herself and the other three during their escape. Who knows if, in the short term, good or evil will win?
Synopsis for Dead Awake

The protagonist, Jade, must will herself out of her deep coma and make contact with the outside world before its too late?
