To celebrate their 40th anniversary, Apples and Snakes are offering 40 poets the opportunity to learn about creating visuals to accompany their poetry, an increasingly necessary skill in the digital era. The emerging poets have been selected via an application process, and will take part in a jam-packed masterclass programme delivered by leading spoken word artists and filmmakers. The aim of the programme is for participants to produce a short poetic film (one minute long) to accompany a new poem about their ‘world’ – their life, local environment or city. At the end of the project, these films will be shared and celebrated at small live events and an online showcase. Each poet will receive a £500 commission for taking part and producing their film.
