## Summary

The British Film Institute (BFI) is currently engaged in the award phase of a tender titled "BFI Film Academy Audio Visual Outputs." This opportunity falls under the category of services, specifically focusing on advertising, information, entertainment, and propaganda film production. The tender process began with an open procurement method, with the contract period starting on 7th August 2017 and concluding on 6th August 2018. The successful supplier, Mptye Ltd, will be responsible for producing a series of films that document and celebrate the BFI Film Academy programme, designed for talented young individuals aged 16-19 across the UK. Key event dates include a tender period that ended on 28th July 2017, and the award was published on 3rd October 2017.

This contract presents an excellent opportunity for businesses in the creative and production sectors, particularly those with expertise in filmmaking and content creation. Companies that can deliver high-quality video production and storytelling are prime candidates, especially those that are small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) or voluntary, community, and social enterprises (VCSEs). By collaborating with the BFI, selected firms will not only contribute to the development of young filmmakers but also enhance their visibility and reputation within the UK film industry, potentially opening pathways to future projects and partnerships.

## Notice

Now in its sixth year and open to young people from anywhere in the UK, the BFI Film Academy offers a real chance for talented 16-19 year olds to develop the specialist filmmaking skills they need to be part of the future of the UK film industry - no matter where they're from or what their background. The BFI Film Academy offers bursaries to help those in need with costs, ensuring it is open to as diverse a range of young people as possible. The BFI is seeking a production company or freelance filmmaker with whom it can work to create a series of film materials documenting and celebrating the work delivered through the annual BFI Film Academy programme. We are also looking to create a montage showcasing a handful of the films made on the courses. All outputs will be shown online, at events and through social media. The proposed audience for this content includes current and future participants of the programme, film industry representatives, and key BFI Film Academy stakeholders, (e.g., BFI board members and senior management, Department for Education supporters). The content will also form part of the BFI's evaluation of the programme by capturing the experiences of the participants and partners. The successful company/filmmaker will work with the BFI, and the UK-wide delivery partners, to oversee the collation, research, clearances and editing of BFI Film Academy material and the delivery of the final films. The selected company/filmmaker will be expected to travel to a subset of 48 UK wide film Academies, as part of this project, and for reference, the list of Academies can be found on the following link: http://www.bfi.org.uk/education-research/5-19-film-education-scheme-2013-2017/bfi-film-academy-scheme/bfi-film-academy-uk-network-programme
