The red carpet will roll out in January when the Blyth Cinema becomes the hub for a biennial film festival aimed at encouraging young moviemakers to hone their skills.

The brainchild of former Clare High School student and filmmaker Chris Bishop, the festival will inspire and educate young people from the State’s regional areas in the art of film-making.

Mr Bishop, who now lives in London, said there were a number of reasons that lead him to initiate the Clare Valley Film Festival.

“I hope the festival will act as a hub for networking and supporting regional film,” he said.

The festival will host a workshop, questions and answers with industry professionals and a competition all aimed at skill development and sharing film industry knowledge.
