This project is a twelve-month programme of knowledge exchange, public engagement and active dissemination, building on the impact of two previous AHRC-funded Make Film History projects: a UK-Ireland Collaboration in the Digital Humanities research networking grant which created a new, sustainable model for the creative reuse of moving image archive material in education; and a public engagement grant which worked with fifty emerging filmmakers across the UK to create new short films in response to one hundred years of BBC storytelling. Twelve of the films were showcased on the BBC website and all are available on the project website as exemplars of the diverse range of new work produced through the scheme. Through educational licensing agreements with our archive partners, the Make Film History project offers 270 films for creative reuse by educators and students in schools, training and higher education across the UK and Ireland. Once licensed by an educational institution, films can be downloaded by tutors for use in the classroom, on campus or online. Students browse the project website, choose an archive film to respond to and request download access to the film, integrating clips of up to two minutes into their own work. While most UK universities use the scheme on their filmmaking courses, in consultation with the original project partners, we have identified three key issues preventing wider engagement across disciplines and beyond HE. These are three key aims and objectives of the proposed project, to strengthen the engagement and reach of our innovative creative reuse model in education through new activity not built into the original award. A fourth aim is to expand our impact into Europe. The project will improve the user experience of the MAP Marketplace delivery platform, through which films are licensed and downloaded. We will develop a more streamlined, accessible student-facing platform, where students can download films directly once their institution has signed up to the scheme. It will also provide time-poor educators with an entry-level module to the creative reuse of archive material which doesn't need a lot of teaching preparation time. We will develop an accredited e-learning module with Future Learn, ScreenSkills and Screen Ireland, building on the forty-page Creative Reuse Guide published as an output of the research networking grant. This will provide online training and microcredits for students, educators and emerging filmmakers, addressing skills gaps in the industry and creating new archive-inspired stories in response to the films available through the scheme. The project will establish Make Film History as an annual fixture on the film festival and academic calendar by hosting Make Film History Days at Sheffield Doc/Fest, the leading documentary festival in the UK; and at BFI Southbank and the IFI Documentary Festival in Dublin in September as a curtain-raiser for the new academic year, offering students and educators an induction to the scheme. We will also extend access to these archival resources to educators in Europe, by developing our project partners' links to cultural heritage portals like EUScreen and Europeana, and launching a pan-European online student festival of creative reuse to mark UNESCO's World Day for Audiovisual Heritage in October 2024. Together, these aims and objectives will enhance the value and wider benefits of the original bilateral research project, improving the student user experience, making it simpler for educators to embed MFH material within courses, and making the project more visible to industry, educators, and emerging creatives in the UK, Ireland and Europe.

该项目是一项为期12个月的知识交流、公众参与和积极传播计划，以AHRC资助的前两个电影历史制作项目的影响为基础：英国和爱尔兰在数字人文研究网络赠款方面的合作，该赠款为在教育中创造性地重复使用活动图像档案材料创造了一个新的、可持续的模式；以及一笔公共参与赠款，该赠款与英国各地的50名新兴电影制作人合作，创作新的短片，以响应英国广播公司一百年的讲故事。其中12部电影在BBC网站上放映，所有电影都可以在项目网站上找到，作为该计划产生的各种新作品的典范。通过与我们的档案馆合作伙伴签订教育许可协议，制作电影历史项目提供270部电影，供英国和爱尔兰的教育工作者和学生在学校、培训和高等教育中创造性地重复使用。一旦获得教育机构的许可，教师就可以下载电影，供课堂、校园或在线使用。学生们浏览项目网站，选择一部档案馆电影作为回应，并请求下载访问该电影，将长达两分钟的剪辑整合到他们自己的作品中。虽然大多数英国大学在他们的电影制作课程中使用该计划，但在咨询最初的项目合作伙伴后，我们确定了三个关键问题，阻止了跨学科和高等教育以外的更广泛的参与。这是拟议项目的三个主要目的和目标，通过没有纳入原始奖项的新活动，加强我们创新的创造性再利用模式在教育中的参与度和覆盖面。第四个目标是扩大我们在欧洲的影响力。该项目将改善地图市场交付平台的用户体验，通过该平台获得电影的许可和下载。我们将开发一个更精简、更易于访问的学生平台，一旦学校签署了该计划，学生就可以直接下载电影。它还将为时间紧张的教育工作者提供一个入门模块，以创造性地重复使用档案材料，而不需要大量的教学准备时间。我们将与未来学习、ScreenSkills和Screen爱尔兰一起开发一个经认可的电子学习模块，以作为研究网络补助金的成果出版的40页《创意再利用指南》为基础。这将为学生、教育工作者和新兴电影制作人提供在线培训和小额信贷，解决该行业的技能差距，并根据该计划提供的电影创作新的受档案馆启发的故事。该项目将通过在英国领先的纪录片电影节谢菲尔德文件/电影节上举办制作电影历史日，以及9月份在BFI Southbank和都柏林的IFI纪录片节上举办制作电影历史日，作为新学年的拉开序幕，为学生和教育工作者提供对该计划的介绍，将其确立为电影节和学术日历上的年度固定活动。我们还将通过开发我们的项目合作伙伴到EUScreen和Europe ana等文化遗产门户网站的链接，并发起一个泛欧洲的创造性再利用在线学生节来纪念联合国教科文组织2024年10月的世界视听遗产日，从而向欧洲的教育工作者提供这些档案资源。总而言之，这些目的和目标将提高最初的双边研究项目的价值和更广泛的好处，改善学生的用户体验，使教育工作者更容易在课程中嵌入MFH材料，并使英国、爱尔兰和欧洲的行业、教育工作者和新兴创意人员更容易看到该项目。
