LWLies ‘Print Magazine’ BFI Masterclass

LWLies deputy editor Adam Woodward and creative director Paul Willoughby held a ‘print magazine’ masterclass last Sunday, February 19, as part of the BFI Future Film Festival 2012.

In their class, which was hosted by TV presenter Rick Edwards and attended by nearly 40 young writers and designers, the LWLies team discussed the challenges faced by print publishing in the digital age.

The festival, which offers 15-25 year olds a chance to pick up essential skills from industry experts, also featured classes with directors Dexter Fletcher (Wild Bill), Tom Kingsley and Will Sharp (Black Pond), VFX expert Ed Hall (Casino Royale, John Carter) and organisations like IdeasTap, BFI Film Fund, The Script Factory, FILM CLUB, SAE Institute and BAFTA.
