We askit Frieda Morrison o Doric Film Festival thae speirins. <\/p>\n

Tell us aboot yersel or yer ootfit.<\/strong>
\nThe Doric Film Festival, now in it's fifth year, is a unique event which highlights the Doric language and culture through the medium of film, giving budding film makers an opportunity to show-case their talent using new up-to-date technology. <\/p>\n

The 2024 Doric Film Festival culminated on June 14th with a showcase of submissions – five minute films on the theme: \u201cFit Wye Nae.\u201d The chosen films were shown via a magical 'Video Wall' and beamed across to a packed audience in the amphi-theatre at Robert Gordon University.
\nThe acclaimed Doric Film Festival, which is supported by the Scottish Government, and a team of loyal supporters, is a Scots Radio project, directed by award-winning Scots Radio Director Frieda Morrison who was presented with the Janet Paisley Award for Services to the Scots Language at Scotland\u2019s Trad Awards 2023.<\/p>\n

Frieda Morrison said: \u201cEvery year we receive exciting and creative ideas from entrants, and these serve to remind us of the rich and diverse cultural landscape of the North east. <\/p>\n

\u201cFrom schoolchildren to seasoned film makers, the Doric Film Festival is a much-anticipated event which draws together entrants of all ages with the common goal of celebrating our language with vigour and enthusiasm.\u201d

Whit wis it got ye involvit wi the Scots leid?<\/strong>
\nWith reference to the Doric Film Festival. We wanted to create something that would show-case our language and heritage, using the medium of up-to-date film and presentation technology, that would bring the language to a wider audience.<\/p>\n

Why dae ye feel it is important tae use Scots in everyday life?<\/strong>
\nThe Scots language is the foundation of our heritage. If we lose the language we lose our identity – and the song of our soul.<\/p>\n

\nFlora Garry.<\/p>\n

Do you hear Scots spoken regularly in your local area? Have you noticed any changes over time?<\/strong>
\nYes, I hear Doric Spoken every day in my local area. And over time I have recognised that more people are becoming confident to spik it and promote our Doric language in the North East.
\nThe Doric Board are now supporting 79 new Doric Projects in the North East.<\/p>\n
