Two short films recently premiered at BAFTA<\/a> in London as part of a project to support emerging talent.<\/p>\n

Me and My Latitude<\/a> is a collaboration between BAFTA and Festival Republic<\/a>, organisers of Latitude<\/a>, the yearly arts and music festival.<\/p>\n

Last year two filmmakers were chosen to each make a short film about an artist preparing to perform at Latitude 2011<\/a>, with the aim of reflecting the diversity and inventiveness of the UK arts scene.<\/p>\n

Caroline Bridges<\/strong> has made Knife Edge, which shows dance theatre company Lost Dog<\/a> in action at the festival, whilst Sameer Patel<\/strong> has directed She Want Soul, a portrait of poet and writer Sabrina Mahfouz<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Both films screened last night at BAFTA\u2019s Run Run Shaw Theatre<\/a> in London and will also feature in the line-up for Latitude\u2019s Film & Music Arena in 2012, which is partly programmed in partnership with BAFTA.<\/p>\n
