AdminHistoryThe Millennium Film Project aimed to encapsulate and represent the history of the British Isles over the last 1000 years in a 20 minute film to be made by schoolchildren under the direction of Bob Godfrey and other leading animators. Through the project, children would be given the oppotunity to work with professional animators and directors to produce a film of broadcast quality. The completed film would then be screened at the National Film Theatre and Regional Film Theatres as well as community based venues and national television.

The project was never realised, but was used as a basis for the animation "Millennium - The Musical".
