Media Co-op celebrate festival hits in Berlin and Chicago

Culture & leisure, Featured, News.. — By TFNadmin on 02/02/2012 10:34 pm

THE GLASGOW film production company Media Co-op, which specialises in films for the voluntary sector, are celebrating festival hits in Berlin and Chicago.

Documentary Man for a Day (pictured above), co-produced by Louise Scott of media co-op, has been selected as the opening film in its section at the prestigious Berlinale Festival.

The world premiere of this film which takes a wry and humorous look at gender will take place on 10 February.

Across the Atlantic, Media Co-op’s animated film Mikey and Jools has won a Gold Plaque in the Educational/Youth Audience category at the Chicago International Film Festival.

Heather Coady of Scottish Women’s Aid who commissioned the animation said: “We’re thrilled about the festival award. The film is such high quality, a million miles better than I’d ever hoped for. That’s the joy of working with creative people like Media Co-op.”

Scott said: “There’s not many workers co-operatives or social enterprises in the film industry and not many film companies who only do ethical projects, nothing purely commercial. So we’re specially proud to get this international recognition for the quality of our work.”
