Hi8us First Light

First Light was launched by the UK Film Council and Hi8us Projects in May 2001 to fund and inspire the making of short digital films made by five to 18 year olds. The UK Film Council supports First Light with an annual National Lottery contribution of £1 million and the work programme is managed by Hi8us First Light Limited.

To date, First Light has given over 8,500 young people the chance to write, act, shoot and produce almost 600 films under the guidance of professional filmmakers.
