BUDDING young filmmakers from Keighley picked-up awards at a glittering Hollywood-style ceremony.

Pupils from Ingrow and Long Lee primary schools and Aire View Infants School at Silsden were among more than 100 youngsters from across the district at the black-tie event.

The gathering was the culmination of the 12th annual Bradford Council Film and Animation Competition.

Eighteen films produced by the children were shown on a big screen and an audience vote chose the winners.

Bradford City of Film 'gongs' were handed out, together with prizes donated by Disney.

Among the winning entries was a Jekyll and Hyde stop-motion animation created by Ingrow pupils, Charneil Pearson and Jamie-Lee Sunderland.

In total, the school had five submissions shortlisted and 12 pupils attended the ceremony.

Jenna Dykes, Ingrow Primary's IT specialist, said the children loved taking part in the competition and attending the screening – held at the Cineworld Cinema in the Leisure Exchange, Bradford.

"We enter the event every year and work hard towards getting the children involved," she said.

"It's a nice way to end the school year and those who take part get so much enjoyment from it.

"We embed it across all learning areas, tying it in with the curriculum.

"I'm really passionate about the subject and it's so rewarding to see how much the children get from it."

The two-minute-long Jekyll and Hyde animation looked at the topic of good and bad.

Other Ingrow creations included a piece on the Gruffalo and an e-safety film.

The children work on everything, from planning and story boards to the editing.

Steve Dale, one of the event organisers, praised the quality of all the films shown this year.

He said: "It was a great day. We had entries from very young children all the way up to 11-year-olds.

"It's great seeing young people making films and we were really lucky to have the City of Film there to watch.

"The competition is going from strength to strength, with the quality of films getting better every year."

David Wilson, director of Bradford City of Film, said he believed there were some future stars on show.

He said: "It would be great to see some of the children go on to be future Bafta or Oscar winners, so it is really important they get the encouragement and training they need.

"From what I have seen, there's no reason why any of these children cannot go on to make a career in the industry."
