In this lesson I have completed my proposal sheet talking about what I have created and how that affects my age group.

I have done a simple base for a poster to get people to donate clothes to our festival.

I have looked at basses for clothes to help us create and design.

Today I have been looking at various web pages that link to Ethical Fashion and recycled fashion.

Antalya Golden Orange Film Festival, held annually since 1963 in Antalya, is the most important national film festival in

The 1st Golden Orange Film Festival was held in 1964. Its mission was formulated by Avni Tolunay as to promote the Turkish cinema, to motivate Turkish film producers for high quality works and to help Turkish cinema penetrate the international film platform. The Golden Orange Feature Film Award was called soon the Turkish Oscar following the enthusiasm created in the cinema world with its high performance within a short time. In 1978, the festival went international by incorporating plastic arts for the first time.

Until 1985, the Golden Orange Festival was organized by the patronage of the Municipality of Antalya. That year, the organization was taken over by the newly established Foundation for Culture, Arts and Tourism in Antalya (Antalya Kültür Sanat Turizm Vakfı, AKSAV). From 1985 until 1988, the incorporation of an international music festival called “Akdeniz Akdeniz” (“Mediterranean Mediterranean”) added another dimension to the festival. In the years 1989 to 1994, the municipality, tourism companies and the chamber of commerce in Antalya performed the organization of the Golden Orange Film Festival jointly. Finally, the festival became institutional with the establishment of the Foundation of Golden Orange Culture and Arts Foundation. The institution serves under the name Antalya Culture and Arts Foundation (Antalya Kültür Sanat Vakfı) since September 2002.

Planning Festival 1

Today we were separated into two groups I was lucky enough to be in the creative group.

we decided what out logo and the name of the festival would be.

Comparing Festivals

La Tomatina tomato fight in Buñol near Valencia happens every year on the last Wednesday in August though the partying starts earlier in the week. The highlight of the festival is the tomato fight which takes place between 11am and 1pm on that day.

The event has become one of the highlights on Spain's summer festivals calendar with thousands of people flocking to this little Valencian town for this chaotic event.

The origins of La Tomatina aren't clear with several theories explaining how Bunyol has become home to the world's biggest tomato fight. However, the most plausible suggests that the most likely explanation dates back to 1945 when an annual parade of enormous figures with big heads (Gigantes y Cabezudos) was passing through the streets of Bunyol.

It seems that some youngsters tried to join in the parade and accidentally knocked over one of the giants who got to his feet and started swinging out at everyone around him. In retaliation the youngsters grabbed some tomatoes from a nearby vegetable stall and started throwing them at him until the police arrived to break things up.

The following year on the same last Wednesday of August these young people returned to the town hall square and started another tomato fight using their own tomatoes. Again the police intervened and in subsequent years the local council tried to ban the 'El día de la Tomatina' but with little success as event continued to grow year after year reaching the ludicrous size it is today.

The festival was launched in November 2005 and has enjoyed five successful years. Each year thousands of children, young people and their families enjoy a world-class film programme from all over the world. This year, we will present an exciting mix of films, animated features, workshops, events and hands-on film fun in 12 different locations throughout London.

The film programme in 2009 included premieres, film classics, animation masterpieces, and workshops ranging from the silent film play-a-long to the ‘Make a film in a day’, animation and dance!

In addition to all this, there are very exciting special events and lots of free fun activities for the entire family in the drop-in zone at the Barbican during the LCFF.
