About Electric December 2007
Electric December is an online digital advent calendar.
Established in 1999, Electric December sought to facilitate partnerships between local community and education groups in Bristol and professional media companies, to produce new pieces of creative work for the web.
Electric December ‘07 is different. With the advancement and increased accessibility of creative technology, more and more people are generating great content for the web - particularly young people. So this year we decided to showcase some of the freshest films and animations made by young people (14-21), not only from Bristol and the South West but also from around the rest of the UK.
These seasonal ‘gifts’ have been hand-picked and brought to you by eShed.net, a website run by young people for young people (aged 14-21) interested in film and media. eShed.net has curated a programme of short films that are stylistically different, reflect a range of issues and themes that are important to young people today, and celebrate the talent and abilities of young people from a diverse range of backgrounds.
On eShed.net you can find out how to get involved in all sorts of film and media activities for young people, from local events to national competitions. Right now on eShed.net you can check out lots of extra features on this years Electric December films, including a special 25th film to celebrate Watershed’s 25th birthday and a competition for the best independently made short film by a young person.
