BAFTA

Turn your passion into a role in a film crew

WHAT IS SET THE STAGE

Set The Stage is a filmmaking programme created by EE in partnership with BAFTA, designed to nurture and empower young talent.
In partnership with the Young Film Academy, the programme gives sixteen young filmmakers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to join a film crew and produce a short film under the mentorship of BAFTA nominated actress Daisy Edgar-Jones, EE Rising Star Award 2025 winner, David Jonsson, and a crew of award-winning industry experts across storytelling, production, cinematography, costume design and direction.

THE FILM

The film, exploring the theme “Growing up as a teenager in Britain today”, follows the main character, Hannah, and her younger self, Peanut, on a nostalgic treasure hunt that rekindles memories of her late grandfather. Featuring a cast that includes House of Dragons actress, Carol Ball, Setting Sail will premiere in early 2026.
