This sample was designed to include profile-raising cultural events as well as more salesdriven<br />
festivals, specialist short film events and broader festivals with a significant shorts<br />
programme. The results of the main international competition section for each event between<br />
2005 and 2007 were collated. From a total of 176 available prizes 24 were awarded to British<br />
shorts. These 24 awards were accounted for by 19 short films made by 18 different filmmakers.<br />
(Further details on this data are given in Appendix B.) We then broke down these films under a<br />
range of headings.<br />
