    "I had such a great time at SCREEN31 and will definitely check the ART31 site for more opportunities in the future" Lyle, SCREEN31 member
    "I’ve enjoyed every aspect of SCREEN31. From meeting new people, to learning about equipment, to editing and even talking about films. I also enjoy the idea that each week is different and I’m always surprised to see what we will be doing the following week." Declan, SCREEN31 member
    "I have learned how to set up lights, cameras and sound equipment for an interview (which I think is useful). I have also gained the experience of doing it practically, not just theoretically, thanks to the equipment available to us." Annabel, SCREEN31 member
