GINGER – Science on Film
Short Documentary
DFG & The Welcome Trust
A documentary short by Bioscientist Dr Helen Cooper
and Filmmaker Nick Ray Rutter. The Science on Film
initiative is run by the Wellcome Trust in partnership
with the Documentary Filmmakers Group. It provided a
unique and exciting opportunity for film-makers and
biomedical scientists to collaborate on an intensive
film production and training scheme taught by leading
broadcast professionals and scientists. A total of 16 applicants were chosen to participate in a six-day
training programme, which included seminars, script
development workshops and intensive hands-on training
in the documentary production process. The eight
film-makers and eight scientists then worked in
partnerships to plan, shoot and edit short films
inspired by science.
