ABOUT THE BFI
The BFI (British Film Institute) was established in 1933 to promote
greater understanding, appreciation and access to film and
television culture in Britain. In 1983 the BFI was incorporated by
Royal Charter, a copy of which is available on request or from our
website www.bfi.org.uk.
Our mission is ‘to champion moving image culture in all its
richness and diversity, across the UK, for the benefit of as wide an
audience as possible, to create and encourage debate.’
We aim to grow the value of diverse cinema and television in
Britain. By this we mean British and international works of artistic
and historic significance that, without intervention, might not
otherwise be available to the public.
S U M M A R Y O F R O YA L C H A R T E R O B J E C T I V E S
— To establish, care for and develop collections reflecting the
moving image history and heritage of the United Kingdom
— To encourage the development of the art of film, television
and the moving image throughout the United Kingdom
— To promote the use of film and television culture as a record
of contemporary life and manners
— To promote access to and appreciation of the widest possible
range of British and world cinema
— To promote education about film, television and the moving
image generally, and their impact on society.
The BFI’s main funder is the UK Film Council (UKFC) using
resources delegated by the Department for Culture, Media
and Sport (DCMS). It is a registered charity, number 287780.

Much of what the BFI has achieved could not have happened
without the support and generosity of a number of individuals,
organisations, companies, charitable trusts and foundations, to
whom we are extremely grateful. The BFI has also received
a number of legacies for which we are also very thankful.

DIR ECTOR’S R EPORT
Film and television are a source of immense pleasure and
fulfilment. They offer shared experiences which can crystallise
views and inspire creativity and self-knowledge. Film and
television bring greater understanding of other people and places,
even working, on occasion, as a call to action for the public good.
No-one seeking to influence or understand society can afford to
ignore either medium. Such disregard would be to deny the power
of storytelling itself.
However, the social value of film is directly proportional to its
availability. In other words, the richer the spectrum on offer, the
greater is our understanding not just or the moving image but the
world itself. This is why the BFI exists – to champion work which
might not be accessible otherwise, and to provide the widest
possible choice of environment and opportunity for its exploration.
Our role as a UK-wide organisation has evolved in recent years
following the establishment of agencies dedicated to serving the
regions and the nations. The BFI’s remit now has an emphasis on
national strategies, the care and distribution of our national and
international collections, and the provision of online education
and research resources. Along with other national cultural
organisations, we strive constantly to create programmes of
international significance. We believe that this is what our
audiences expect of us.
It would be impossible to achieve such an aim without the
BFI National Archive.
The collections we hold on behalf of the nation are an asset of
global cultural significance. Arguably the greatest archive of film
in the world, it is certainly the biggest and the busiest. Thousands
of prints are shown internationally every year. In this country
alone, in a single year, we expect to promote and distribute prints
to more than 800 different venues. Millions of people will see a film
from the BFI National Archive thanks to the growing number of
television co-productions, DVDs, cinema releases and our rapidlyemerging online initiatives.
It’s a common misconception that archives are only about the
past. In fact, the best archives are busy acquiring, interpreting,
conserving and releasing films on a daily basis, serving a range
of needs from large audience cinema exhibition to specialised
individual access.

The BFI National Archive is at the heart of our organisation.
It’s dynamic. It’s in touch with living, contemporary film-making.
Through BFI Festivals and BFI Southbank, with their international
archival and contemporary programmes, the relationship is
symbiotic and enduring.
A T H R E E - PA R T V I S I O N
Three years ago we set out on an ambitious path towards
a long-term future. This future aspires to:
The collections cared
for by the BFI on
behalf of the nation
are an asset of global
cultural signiﬁcance
— care for the world’s greatest collection of film and film information,
making sure it is safe and more widely available than ever before
— sustain an international focus for film in the UK through the
creation of a national Film Centre, nurturing and providing
a permanent home for the London Film Festival
— ensure that everyone in Britain, no matter where they are, has
access to the widest diversity of films and knowledge about film –
a digital distribution strategy
Our achievements this year demonstrate the great strides we have
already made along our chosen path. BFI Southbank, for example,
opened to resounding industry and popular acclaim. We made
crucial investments in storage facilities at the BFI National Archive
and launched innovative digital access systems to the Archive.
We have developed a programme to exhibit Archive titles alongside
contemporary releases in mainstream cinemas and over the Digital
Screen Network. Not least we celebrated, triumphantly, the 50th
birthday of The Times BFI London Film Festival.

A C A LL TO AC T ION
We’ve made great strides in most areas, but we haven’t achieved
everything we had hoped for. Supported by the UKFC and DCMS
with modernisation funding, we’ve reduced and held down the
size of the organisation, significantly increased income from
fundraising, introduced efficiencies and achieved most of our
customer-facing initiatives. However, we’ve not yet met the
ambitious growth target we set ourselves for trading income. And
we’ve had to absorb significant, unexpected, additional pension
and utilities costs, as well as a one-off over-run on the capital build
cost of BFI Southbank. This means we have a very challenging year
ahead, made more difficult by the indication of little, if any, future
increase in our Government funding. After a four-year standstill
revenue grant, without an improvement in our financial outlook
the BFI cannot be sustained as it currently exists.
The BFI is an institution emulated across the globe, admired for the
founding of the NFT, the custodianship of the London Film Festival
and the promotion of cultural film. The BFI is respected for the work
of its Archive, and for being the home of special first films and filmmakers. The BFI has tenaciously and joyously nurtured a love of film,
and sought to reach everyone, everywhere. Now this internationally
recognised legacy is part of global cinema history itself.
I believe, as this institution’s director, we must fulfil the
responsibility of ensuring that this extraordinary work survives,
thrives and continues to inspire generations to come. This is our
collective challenge.

Open BFI Southbank
Our most dramatic transformation: During its first
week of opening thousands of visitors streamed to
BFI Southbank, with its pioneering and unprecedented
access to digitised material from the Archive, great new
and improved education initiatives and an adventurous
contemporary programme
Make critical investment in the Archive
Making safe for the future: Archive material at immediate
risk from deterioration was moved into upgraded,
environmentally controlled storage. Existing acetate
vaults have also been made airtight but further urgent
investment is needed.
Provide greater digital access to the BFI
and its collections
A digital revolution: The new Mediatheque at BFI
Southbank now provides free public access to hundreds
of hours of film and television. During the year more than
2.5 million records from the BFI Film & TV Database were
moved online, giving people free access to 70 years of
information. Visitors to the BFI website can now download
films from the Archive to keep and watch again and
again. Interactive guides to British film and TV heritage
were launched on screenonline. The BFI’s Charlie Chaplin
website has been refreshed with new interactive features.
Celebrate both BFI Festivals in their
respective anniversary years – Times BFI
50th London Film Festival and the 21st
London Lesbian and Gay Film Festival
A 50th birthday milestone: 113,000 tickets sold during
the London Film Festival as we celebrated with a strong
programme of films and events. These included the
simultaneous screening of a surprise film in 50 different
venues across the capital, such as Heathrow Terminal 4,
Holloway Prison and a competition winner’s front room.
We also drew over 1,000 people to an outdoor screening
in London’s Trafalgar Square of a specially commissioned
programme of short films.
A coming of age: We achieved our goal, selling 25,000
tickets for screenings during the London Lesbian &
Gay Film Festival, an event made even more special in
its birthday year by coinciding with the opening of BFI
Southbank. 44 venues around the UK signed up for a tour
of the highlights.

Expand our broadcast partnerships
The BFI on TV: An audience of over 14 million saw films
from the Archive on the small screen thanks to three major
co-productions during the year with the BBC and Channel 5.
This represents a 250% increase in TV audience compared
to last year and is 27% ahead of target for this year
Programme Archive films alongside
mainstream releases
Curtain raiser: More than a quarter of a million people saw
Handkerchief Drill, a short film from the Central Office of
Information (COI) held in the BFI National Archive, when
it was screened before the feature release of The History
Boys in cinemas across the UK
Investment in Archive titles for
the Digital Screen Network
Dorothy went digital: Ten BFI titles were made available
to screen digitally during the year. Notable successes
included a touring programme of material from the COI to
coincide with its 60th anniversary, and a digital restoration
of The Wizard of Oz. This timeless classic was released by
the BFI and, with 26 digital prints, represented the widest
opening to date of a classic film released via the Digital
Screen Network
Strengthen our national membership
to support audience development
Joining the club: We launched a new national membership
scheme. All members now have an enhanced benefits
and discounts package, while an attractive new tier of
membership – the BFI Champion – encourages people to
provide a higher level of financial support. A new
BFI Student Membership offer was also launched
Significant planning towards a
permanent National Film Centre
A new home for Film: Early consultation was completed
with business partners on the South Bank and in the
Arts sector as a whole, plus local planning authorities.
An options appraisal has been developed and incorporated
into an outline business case which was approved by
the BFI Board before being presented to the Office for
Government Commerce (OGC) gateway process

2007 will be a tough year as we face a much harsher financial
environment. Along with increasing estate and utility expenses
and unforeseen pension costs, there is the prospect of a further
three years of flat grant-in-aid funding. Nevertheless, there remain
high expectations of the BFI that we are determined to meet.
This determination is reflected in our key objectives for the year:
— Continue to create a thriving new destination at BFI Southbank,
attracting 800,000 visitors during the first 12 months of it opening
— Achieve over 1.85 million admissions to screenings of BFI films;
550,000 users of BFI education and information resources; 1 million
viewers to BFI broadcast co-productions; over 6 million users of
BFI online resources
— Launch a major awareness and fundraising campaign to fulfil
the urgent needs of the Archive estate for the next ten years
— Develop a long term digital strategy for audiences to access the
BFI online
— Agree with the UK Film Council a forward plan to 2011 in the
context of the Government comprehensive spending review
— Ensure the London Film Festival is recognised and supported
as the UK’s premier international film festival and to achieve
additional funding to deliver this
— Complete the National Education Strategy and begin
implementation
— Secure funding to progress the Film Centre to advanced
planning stage

Not even an unusually hot summer and competition from the
World Cup could hold back the BFI’s cultural programme this
year. We have broken box-office records, introduced new digital
distribution, caught the imagination of millions, discovered new
venues and continued to mark the milestones of filmmaking
with a passion.
As always, our programme made available a diverse spectrum of
classic and specialised film. But an extended run of Michelangelo
Antonioni’s The Passenger (1975) proved to be the year’s surprise
theatrical hit, breaking box office records at the National Film
Theatre (now BFI Southbank) for a single-screen release. The
film received excellent reviews from the major critics and was
rewarded with many four and five-star ratings. It went on to play
in more than 30 venues around the country and proved every bit
as popular with audiences. At a time when the hot weather and
the appeal of football hit mainstream cinema audiences, it was
a testament to the enduring appeal of Antonioni’s film and Jack
Nicholson’s performance.
Directors Jacques Rivette, Carol Reed, John Huston and Luis Buñuel
were all celebrated this year with retrospectives of their films at
the National Film Theatre (NFT). As well as presenting the more
familiar works for reappraisal in each director’s season, we always
tried to introduce some of their lesser-known films for audiences
to ‘discover’. Other highlights in the year’s programme at the NFT
included appraisals of cinema favourites such as Ava Gardner,
Bette Davis, Bernard Herrmann, Michael Mann, and Isabelle
Huppert. We also examined genres as diverse as Mexican cinema,
films and documentaries about music, Westerns, Modernism and
Silent Comedy.
During the year we marked the 60th anniversary of the Central
Office of Information (COI) with a programme of public information
films at the NFT, including shorts from the popular ‘Charley Says’
and ‘Be Smart, Be Safe’ campaigns. Most of the 140 information
films shown came from the BFI National Archive, some screening
as new prints struck by the Archive using original preservation
materials. During the season visitors to the NFT and BFI London
IMAX were able to download, via Bluetooth, two short films from
the programme for free to their mobile phone. This has opened
up another access point to the archive that we expect will grow
considerably in the future.

Personal appearances continued to delight and enthral our
audiences throughout the year as we welcomed to the BFI guests

Eli Wallach, Elmore Leonard and Gael García Bernal.
Over 50,000 people

World Cup fever didn’t stop the BFI IMAX reaching a new audience
as it screened three England games live in front of more than 1,100
people. It was the next best thing to being on the touchline. There
were also sell-out audiences for Optronica, the London festival
devoted to the fusion of music and moving image, as well as for
the new film releases Happy Feet and 300. The BFI IMAX was the
best performing cinema in the UK for the opening weekends of
both releases. The big hit of the year was Superman Returns, which
included 20 minutes of material remastered to 3D and was watched
by over 50,000 during a run that lasted longer than any other
cinema in the UK.
Again attracting new audiences to the BFI IMAX, our After Dark
screenings of second run mainstream contemporary films such as
Casino Royale, Lord of the Rings and Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s
Chest gave people a whole new cinematic experience.
The UK Film Council’s new Digital Screen Network (DSN) proved
a magical addition to the BFI’s distribution schedule this year. In
time for Christmas, we released a new digital restoration of The
Wizard of Oz (1939) to a total of 31 venues (21 outside of London).
The release was supported by additional funding from the UK Film
Council and with 26 digital ‘prints’ it became the widest opening to
date of a classic film via the DSN. The appeal of the film endured
well beyond Christmas and the New Year as it went on to be
screened at over 80 venues throughout half term and up to Easter.
Further supporting the COI’s 60th anniversary, a touring
programme of six films from the post-war era – How to Survive
the 1940s – was shown in venues across the UK. A COI short film,
Handkerchief Drill (1949), was also released as part of the BFI’s new
Archive Shorts initiative, screening at over 100 venues with the
major feature release of The History Boys and seen by more than
250,000 cinema-goers.

Other BFI releases (frequently tying in with major NFT seasons)
such as the Rivette titles Paris Nous Appartient (1961) and Celine and
Julie Go Boating (1974), Buñuel’s neglected masterpiece Los Olvidados
(1950), and British classics The Innocents (1961), The Fallen Idol (1948)
and Great Expectations (1946) all showed throughout the year at
venues and regional film festivals up and down the UK.
We were particularly thrilled to present the world premiere of a
new digital remastering of the little-seen avant-garde film Borderline
(1930), newly scored by renowned jazz musician Courtney Pine.
Pine played live in a semi-improvised performance for a special
screening of the film at the Tate Modern. Two other films from the
BFI Collections also screened at the event – Dreams That Money Can
Buy (1948) and Berlin: Symphony of a City (1927).
This was a successful year for reaching new audiences through largescale screenings of archive titles, some in the open air. The 1970
film Performance at the Serpentine captured the public imagination,
while Somerset House screened North by Northwest (1959) and The
Night of the Hunter (1955), all distributed by the BFI. During the
World Cup, historic football films from the Mitchell & Kenyon
Collection were shown before live matches on the BBC Big Screens
in city centres across Britain to an audience of 100,000 or more.
Several major broadcasting co-productions during the year exceeded
our expectations for audience numbers. The Lost World of FrieseGreene, a three-part co-production with the BBC, attracted more than
10 million viewers, while Channel Five’s Disappearing Britain, which
also used BFI National Archive material, was watched by over four
million people. Silent Britain, another co-production was screened on
BBC4 and achieved an audience of a further 177,000.

The Times BFI
50th London Film
Festival celebrated
new discoveries
from exciting talents
in world cinema,
screening 314 ﬁlms
from 48 countries
Since it was first established 50 years ago to screen a selection
of outstanding work from Europe’s other festivals, including
Cannes and Venice, the London Film Festival has changed almost
beyond recognition. While it retains some of the original spirit of
being a ‘festival of festivals’, it has expanded its horizons to show
new discoveries from important and exciting talents in world
cinema, underpinning the BFI’s core mission. The Festival has
grown in size too, from screening fewer than 20 films in the 1957
programme to the 300 or more it shows today. While it remains
first and foremost a public festival, it is now a magnet for film
professionals and journalists.
Two powerful films framed this year’s Festival. It opened with
the compelling British feature, The Last King of Scotland, and
closed a fortnight later with the cross-cultural and ambitious Babel.
The truly diverse programme of 183 feature films and 131 shorts
from 48 countries had strong representation from Asia, Africa and
Latin America. It also included titles by and/or about lesbians, gay
men, transgender or bisexual people; 53 of the films were directed
by women.
Leading a special programme of events to mark the anniversary
was an outdoor screening in Trafalgar Square where over 1,000
people gathered to watch Portrait of London - a series of short
films commissioned by the BFI for the Festival and mixed live
by the renowned director, Mike Figgis. Traditionally the Festival
has presented a surprise film shown at a single venue in London.
During this anniversary year a handful of surprise films were
screened at 50 different venues in and around the capital, including
Heathrow Terminal 4, Holloway Prison and even a competition
prize-winner’s front room with the film’s director there to
introduce it!
In addition to the public screenings, the Festival hosted over
90 education and industry screenings and events, including ThinkShoot-Distribute and for school children How to be a Stuntperson.
Among the talent adding glamour and glitz to the event as they
made personal appearances to support and introduce screenings
of their films were Emilio Estevez, Christian Slater, Will Ferrell,
Emma Thompson, Robert Rodriguez, Dustin Hoffman, Bob Hoskins,
Forrest Whitaker, Kate Winslet and Matt Damon.

As the Festival gathers momentum each year, expectations grow.
This year the BFI, responding in part to a request from the UK
Film Council, undertook a fact-finding mission, consulting with
key industry figures. The survey was also an acknowledgement
of the Government’s desire for a film festival strategy for the
UK. The findings showed overwhelming support for the London
Film Festival and its aims. There was also wide consensus that
additional investment is needed if the Festival is to be able to
compete more ambitiously with other international festivals for
support and profile.
Our key priorities for the future are to secure long-term financial
stability for the Festival, to reduce our dependence on sponsorship
for the delivery of the core programme and improve the facilities
which support filmmakers, industry, delegates and guests. This
year’s Festival was a celebration of the past 50 years, but it was also
a time to look forward with optimism to the next 50 years.

For over two decades the London Lesbian & Gay Film Festival
has brought an eclectic selection of some of the best in queer
cinema from around the world to appreciative audiences in London
and across the UK. Celebrating its 21st birthday the Festival has
matured to become the third largest film festival in the UK behind
London and Edinburgh, and the largest of its kind in Europe.
The opportunity to be one of the first to explore the newly-opened
BFI Southbank was an extra encouragement for the thousands
who attended this year. Some 25,000 tickets were sold and the
Festival also attracted 187 international film-makers and industry
delegates. These included young filmmakers who were able to build
on their skills during a four-day workshop run in partnership with
the Mayor of London’s office and the youth production company,
Mouth That Roars.
This year’s Festival programme comprised 90 features and 124
shorts and videos. Although genuinely international in scope with
featured work from 26 countries, it was pleasing to see a record
number of British films in the programme, including the Closing
Night Gala of Duncan Roy’s The Picture of Dorian Gray and Rag Tag
by Black British Director Adaora Nwandu.

BFI DVDs were

During the Festival we piloted a system of text message alerts that
proved very successful for pushing ‘slow sellers’. Online ticket sales
also grew. Audience research carried out during the event was
overwhelmingly positive, revealing a very loyal audience who are
attracted to the Festival experience as a whole and not just to the
films. Of the total audience, 19% lived locally in Lambeth/ Southwark,
20% were from outside London and 6% were from abroad.
A touring programme with highlights reflecting the richness of
the Festival will visit around 40 towns and cities across the UK
and Ireland throughout the summer of 2007.
DV D A N D B O O K R E L E A S E S
The DVD has become one of the most important ways the BFI reaches
the wider audience. This year we distributed a further 25 titles, most
with extra commentary features and informative sleeve notes to
provide expert contextualisation. The deliberately broad selection
included three films by Derek Jarman: Caravaggio (1986), Angelic
Conversation (1985) and Wittgenstein (1993). We also released two films
by Jacques Rivette which tied in with a season of his work at the NFT
– Celine and Julie Go Boating (1974) and Paris Nous Appartient (1961).
In addition, there was something of a ‘silent’ theme to the DVD
release schedule. Dickens Before Sound, a unique collection of early
adaptations of perhaps Britain’s favourite and (after Shakespeare)
most adapted author, was followed by the release on DVD of the BFI/
BBC TV co-production of Silent Britain, and RW Paul – The Collected Films
1895-1908. As Britain’s first filmmaker Robert W Paul was a leading
pioneer in this country and one of the founders of world cinema.
Many of his films are preserved in the BFI National Archive and this
DVD brings his collected works of popular comedies, dramas, and
fantasy and actuality films together for the first time for a wider
audience. Also released following the successful TV co-production
with the BBC was The Lost World of Friese-Greene telling the story of a
pioneering, but hitherto forgotten British documentary maker.

BFI Publishing had a busy year too producing 24 books covering
everything from film theory, cinema history and the study of
television, to more populist studies of film and TV and film poster art.
Key titles include the BFI Modern Classic Distant Voices, Still Lives which
takes a poetic look at Terence Davies’ film about post-war workingclass childhood; a detailed introduction to the themes and styles
of the films of Pedro Almódovar; and a unique study of one of the
greatest television drama serials of all time, The Singing Detective.
A History of Artists’ Film and Video in Britain, 1897-2004 considers the
work of some 300 artists and highlights the importance of moving
image in British art history. Directors in British and Irish Cinema
is packed with facts, critical summaries and the resumes and
filmographies of over 1,000 film directors from Britain and Ireland
since 1895. Other titles published during the year include Hollywood
and Politics and Society, 100 Videogames and a number of teachers’
resources such as Teaching Black Cinema, Real Shorts (DVD-based) and
Teaching Videogames.

Towards the end of the year an online poll to choose top Black
Screen Icons was jointly launched by the BFI and Every Generation
Media, with support from the UKFC and the BBC.
100 Black Screen Icons was conceived and launched as a
continuation of the BFI’s influential Black World project in 2005 that
brought together more than 40 national projects and events such as
local and national film seasons, film and DVD releases, education
projects, workshops, and mixed-media music and film events.
The nominees in the poll cover film and television genres and
eras from the past 100 years and hail from the UK, Europe, North
America, Africa and the Caribbean. The list was compiled with the
help of an expert panel of film practitioners, including directors,
actors, writers and technical innovators. The result of the poll will
be announced in the autumn of 2007.)

The huge collections of film and television material cared for
in the BFI National Archive is of world cultural importance. Its
maintenance and safety is core to our obligations as a national
heritage organisation. During the year we successfully completed
a critical phase of our programme to stabilise the collection. We
installed ten refrigerated mobile storage containers designed to
deliver optimum environmental conditions suitable for master
safety film, and relocated film materials previously held in substandard storage facilities.
The building’s infrastructure on all three vaults at Berkhamsted has
also been improved and we are currently replacing the environmental
control systems in our largest acetate vault. This will allow us to
create optimum storage environments for stable acetate film.
But these measures are short term. During routine testing of the
acetate film collection we found that up to 30% is actively decaying.
To arrest this decay and prevent total loss of materials we need
to develop a large scale sub zero storage environment as a longer
term solution. Over the next 12 months it is vital that we secure the
investment to deliver the best possible storage environments for the
collections and we have launched a major campaign to raise sufficient
funds to fix the Archive estate for the next ten years and beyond.
Other significant Archive developments during the year include:
— The creation of a new audio conservation facility to allow
deteriorating magnetic sound tracks which cannot safely be stored in
sub zero conditions to be transferred onto new digital storage media
— Securing a £1.8m grant from the Joint Information Systems Committee
for a two-year project working in partnership with a range of
organisations, to digitise hundreds of hours of moving image material and
other documents that chart and discuss life in Britain in the 20th century
— Leading the development of a national archive strategy, working in
partnership with the UK Film Council, regional screen agencies, regional
film archives, MLA and DCMS. The strategy aims to provide a framework
for moving image archives in Britain to work better together to care for
and preserve the collections and, at the same time, make them more
accessible to the public through a mass digitisation programme
— During the year, Ofcom, the communication regulator, commissioned
an external review of the BFI’s off-air broadcast recording service.
After considering the available options, Ofcom recommended that the
BFI should continue as the designated national television archive for a
further period of five years.

A FRONT DOOR TO ALL OF THE BFI
After a year or more of construction and fit-out we were finally ready for
the red carpet. The new BFI Southbank threw open its doors to welcome
thousands of people in its first week for the Optronica festival and later
the London Lesbian & Gay Film Festival.
Opening BFI Southbank is a major milestone for the BFI. In addition to
the existing cinemas where we continue to show an exciting and diverse
programme for our core audience, we are attracting new visitors to the
innovative Mediatheque. Here people can enjoy hundreds of hours of film and
television from the BFI National Archive, completely for free. The new Gallery
space now provides an opportunity to see how artists perceive the moving
image and use it in their work.
Students from the local community and from all over Britain come to study
film heritage. Families come to BFI Southbank to have fun and experiment in
hands-on workshops. In the country’s best-stocked filmstore, people
come and browse through the thousands of DVDs and books. Others
come simply to soak up the atmosphere in the comfortable surroundings
of the Benugo café and restaurant, perhaps hoping to catch a glimpse
of a famous visiting filmmaker.
The BFI has largely been unable to offer these facilities and attractions before.
Now, for the first time, we can bring together our wide variety of activities
under one roof. But our ambitions and the demand from audiences increase
all the time. We have always known that it could only be a temporary home.
Limited by its location under Waterloo Bridge, BFI Southbank cannot be grown
further. It will never be able to realise the full extent of the BFI’s aspirations
for meeting audience anticipation.
We see the building as a ‘rehearsal room’ for a new, high profile, public-facing
national film centre. Our vision brings together the disparate elements of the
BFI’s activities into a simple and exciting proposition that can be delivered on
site and online, serving the public as well as educational bodies, filmmakers
and the creative industries as a whole.
Nothing like the proposed BFI National Film Centre exists anywhere else.
It will be unique because only the BFI can bring together the world’s greatest
collections of film and television and add to it the excitement and stimulation
of emerging cinema. We can build creative and inclusive programmes that
inspire everyone. It will be wired to the world and influenced as much by
its virtual visitors as it is by those who pass through the door. It will be the
world’s most important cultural centre for the enjoyment, celebration and
study of film.
During the year we have consulted with our South Bank business partners,
local planning authorities and other key stakeholders to prepare an outline
business case with an options appraisal and feasibility study. This has been
presented to the Office of Government Commerce (OGC) gateway process.
Over the coming year our priority will be to raise funding to take us forward
to the planning and design stage. This is expected to be by the end of 2007/08.

Digital technology lies at the very heart of the BFI’s strategy to grow
access to the national collections. We’ve made tremendous progress
in two important and innovative ways: through BFI Online and in the
new Mediatheque at BFI Southbank.
The launch of BFI Online during the year has created further
opportunities for people to browse and engage with all the BFI’s
services and information, whether they are at home, in the office
or on the move. The key resource is the BFI Film and TV Database
– over 2.5 million records on film and television collected by the
BFI over the past 70 years. This is now available online to everyone
completely for free.
While others have merely talked about it, the BFI got on and launched
a film download space on its BFI website, adding each month to a
library of selected, rare films from the BFI National Archive. These
can be downloaded to keep. We created a new Chaplin section on
the BFI website where people can learn about the legendary star’s
life and enjoy thousands of images enriched by in-depth contextual
notes written by BFI experts. There is also an innovative series of
interactive online tours on BFI screenonline (www.screenonline.org.
uk), the definitive educational guide to Britain’s film and TV history.
Screenonline is now available free in every school in Britain.
As a result of these new digital developments we have attracted
significantly more people to our website and encouraged greater
usage, resulting in a 44% increase in hits year on year.

The opening of BFI Southbank marked a distinct step change in
the way we reach new audiences. A new way of working for the BFI
also began when we announced the start of a two-year partnership
with Hewlett Packard (HP) providing state-of-the-art access to the
archive collections. HP’s digital servers and computers power the
new Mediatheque where visitors can browse for free hundreds of
hours of digitised material from the Archive on the small screen.
With digitisation made possible thanks to funding from the
Heritage Lottery Fund and the hi-tech viewing facilities from HP, the
Mediatheque has become a perfect example of culture and commerce
working hand in hand to enhance public value.
We have begun work on the digitisation programme with JISC
and with the objective to create an online portal through which
everyone can access up to 600 hours of unique footage and
contextualised documents that demonstrate how the key social,
political and economic issues affecting Britain during the last
century were represented and debated through moving images.
The BFI is leading a partnership made up of the national archives,
regional archives, the Parliamentary Recording Unit, BBC, ITN and
Open Media to deliver the project. Footage will come from many
sources such as Public Information and Government films, national
and regional news bulletins, newsreels, parliamentary hearings
and political broadcasts.

The main priority of BFI Education continues to be to establish
film as an integral part of the primary curriculum. This year we
had early success in Northern Ireland, supporting the Northern
Ireland Film and Television Commission, and more recently
have completed an ambitious programme in England. Reframing
Literacy invited all of the Local Authorities in England to join
training sessions and use resources that aimed to put short
films into mainstream literacy classrooms. We trained teachers
and advisors in half of the authorities and levered significant
investment from them into the initiative. We continue to sell
thousands of copies of our Shorts compilations as more and
more teachers join the programme.
At the same time, we embrace the huge opportunities presented
to us by the revitalised BFI Southbank and its importance as a
test-bed for a future film centre. By the end of March 2007, we had
re-shaped our education team at BFI Southbank to concentrate
on reaching a range of core audiences: in addition to schools and
teachers, we are programming for families, young people outside
school, community groups, and the general adult population.
We worked with excluded young people in partnership with
children’s charity Kidscape to produce martial arts films which
were shown as part of Beautiful South, our new programme of films
made and shown by and for young people. Over 300 GCSE students
made films as part of Aspire Aim Higher, a widening participation
project with South Bank University. We also ran a new series of
public debates sponsored by Sight & Sound, and a seminar series
called What is Cinema?, co-organised with the Independent Cinema
Office. Our annual Media Studies Conference attracted teachers
from all over the UK, and introduced them to industry insiders,
leading thinkers, and expert practitioners.
In our advocacy work, we made important contributions to
launching the Charter for Media Literacy both in the UK and
Europe – www.euromedialiteracy.eu. With the National Foundation
for Education Research we completed Special Effects, a major piece of
research into learning outcomes from film sponsored by Creative
Partnerships.

BFI Screenonline is a truly UK-Wide resource, with users spanning
the nations and regions from Shoreditch to the Shetlands and from
Durham to Derry. Thanks to a new approach to authentication
developed in partnership with the National Education Network, the
service has since late-2006 been freely accessible in all UK schools
and universities, as well as many public libraries. On the back of
this improved access, the number of users increased dramatically,
with video requests averaging over 500 per working day by the
end of the year. At least 83 per cent of those viewing video were in
organisations based outside London.
During the year Screenonline launched an interactive tour looking
at Free Cinema, hosted by Malcolm McDowell. This is the third in an
ongoing series of tours sponsored by BT that explore key elements
of British cinema history. Other highlights online included a
celebration of Victoria Wood’s 30-year career, a look at British
cinema during the 1970s and a revisit to the BBC’s influential
Wednesday Play strand. For teachers the newly launched Education
Zone – funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund - features lesson plans,
starters and plenaries that use Screenonline titles for teaching
particular topics.
Looking forward, The UK Film Council this year initiated a review
of its funded education work – delivered by First Light Movies,
Skillset, Film Education, Film Club, the national and regional screen
agencies, and the BFI. The outcome will be a strategy launched in
2008 for film education that consolidates all our activities, avoids
duplication, and makes an ambitious pitch for putting film at the
centre of the cultural life of children and young people. The BFI will
be at the heart of this important work.
Research, and in particular the interpretation of the collections
in the BFI National Archive, remains a priority of the BFI. No less
than seven curators presented papers at the annual conference
of MeCCSA in Coventry in January 2007. In addition we made a
keynote presentation about the relationship between the BFI and
the Academy.
The BFI is also involved as a partner in a number of AHRC-funded
research projects (with the Universities of Stirling, Westminster
and London). The BFI is working with researchers at Queen Mary,
University of London on a history of the BFI (due for completion in
2008) and in November 2006 a related Screen Studies conference
was held at the University of London.
