Today Circalit are announcing the launch of a brand new social networking site just for screenwriters at www.circalit.com. The site, which is free for all writers, allows users to upload their screenplays and to showcase their work to producers, agents and directors. Circalit allows writers to manage their fanbase, receive feedback, collaborate with other writers, share tips and become part of an ever-growing network of writers, critics and industry professionals. Since Circalit started beta-testing two weeks ago, almost 400 users have signed up. The site is now public although it will continue beta-testing until it launches fully in the near future.

The theme of the fifth Africa in Motion (AiM) Film Festival is “Celebrations” and African filmmakers are invited to submit documentaries relating to this theme to be considered for inclusion in the October 2010 festival. This is an opportunity for African filmmakers to showcase their work at one of the most prestigious African film festivals worldwide and to gain exposure to a wide audience in the UK.

On February 17, 2010, the WCF Day will once again provide an opportunity to learn more about the programme, successes, funding strategies, films, initiatives, and partners of the World Cinema Fund (WCF).
