Leeds Young Film Festival: Movie Club
Movie Club 2026 is all about hands-on fun for kids who want to be creative (no parents allowed!!). Whether they love making TikToks, YouTube videos, or just love watching them, why not give them the chance to understand more about how they’re made and have fun getting creative, this is the perfect place to bring their ideas to life and help their skills grow, with real industry professionals.
Designed in collaboration with Screen Yorkshire and aimed at young people aged 8-13, Movie Club blends watching great short films with practical workshops covering everything from directing and camera tricks, animation and costume & SFX make-up.
If you’re already making videos, we’ll show you how to take them further. Or if you haven’t started yet, this is the perfect place to begin. No experience is necessary!
All Movie Club sessions include a 20 minute screening of short films before the workshop begins.
