The recipient of the award will be announced at Glasgow Film Festival 2018.
The Margaret Tait Award is a Glasgow Film Festival commission supported by Creative Scotland and LUX, inspired by the celebrated Orcadian filmmaker Margaret Tait (1918
– 1999), a filmmaker and writer whose film poems, hand-painted
animations and documentaries were pioneering in the field of
experimental filmmaking.
Inspired by the wealth of talent emerging from Scotland, the Margaret
Tait Award was founded in 2010 to support experimental and innovative
artists working within the field of experimental filmmaking. The award
aims to provide a high-profile platform for the winning artist to
exhibit their work and engage with a wider audience: the winner will
have the opportunity to showcase their work at Glasgow Film Festival
2019.
