104 films successful first year running Film Academy Birmingham has been a great success with two amazing films produced and young people aged 16-20 learning new filmmaking skills and making industry in-roads.

Their Royal Highnesses hosted future leaders and local business owners from Birmingham’s creative industries sector at an event in The Rectory, Birmingham. The Prince and Princess met representatives of the creative industries sector, including designers, artists, and playwrights and heard more about how the sector is growing and their experiences of opening and running their businesses in the city. Their Royal Highnesses then joined the guests for a game of interactive darts downstairs in the 180 Club.
