A great opportunity for aspiring film journalists from the British Film Institute (BFI).

As part of its London Film Festival later this month (October 14-29), the BFI is offering one 16-24-year-old the chance to interview a director at the festival.

The winning entrant will also be given a training session on interviewing with Nick James, editor of film magazine Sight & Sound.

To enter, applicants must name the director they’d most like to interview and the five questions that they would ask them. Send this along with your name, age and phone number to journalismcompetition [at] bfi.org.uk.

Deadline for entries in 10am (BST) on October 12.
