Studios gives teenagers role in movies

A group of teenagers are being mentored by top film-makers to help them get jobs in the industry.

Under the scheme, 10 Londoners from ethnic minority backgrounds have been on a tour of Pinewood Studios with James Bond producer Barbara Broccoli.

They visited one of the Harry Potter sets and the underwater set where Casino Royale, The Da Vinci Code, and Elizabeth: The Golden Age were filmed.

The students will also be offered industry placements at the world-famous studios.

Organisers First Light said they hoped the scheme, called Second Light, would improve diversity in the British film industry and make it more accessible.
