More details:
The UK Film Council kickstarted subtitled cinema in the UK by deciding to
fund 50% of the cost (cinemas funded the rest). They are now undertaking a
major study to determine the level of awareness of subtitled cinema, and to
gather views on what improvements could be made, choice of films, choice of
dates and times, loop systems, signing, how often people attend subtitled
shows, etc.
This research will help to shape the future of subtitled cinema in the UK.
The research will consist of a series of focus groups for deaf and hard of
hearing people, followed by a survey. If you would like to take part in a
subtitled cinema discussion group, please contact us as soon as you can, as
places are limited.
Children and adults are welcome, and participants will be paid £40.
Discussions are BSL interpreted, and the discussion area will be fitted
with an induction loop.
There will be separate groups for deaf and hard of hearing adults, and
children. They will all take place in Manchester on the afternoon of
Saturday 30th September 2006.
So, please help us to gather views on subtitled cinema and earn £40!
