- British_Urban_Film_Festival abstract "The British Urban Film Festival (BUFF) was formed in July 2005 to showcase urban independent cinema in the absence of any such state-sponsored activity in the UK.Supported by filmmakers and British actors, the organisation was set up by Emmanuel Anyiam-Osigwe and established as BUFF Enterprises Ltd.BUFF bears no relation to the BUFF film festival established in Malmo, Sweden. The London-based organisation was initially created in partnership with organisations like The Screen.Biz (UK) and The Hip-Hop Association (USA) to mobilise & develop young, up and coming homegrown British urban talent in the independent film & TV sector. With offices in Greater London, the company has also devised projects including 'The Search for BUFF', a reality-TV-talent contest designed to find people who 'look buff' who are then 'appointed' as ambassadors to promote the annual British Urban Film Festival. Filmed on location across the UK, the pilot was screened at the headquarters of ITV in London's South Bank and made its Christmas Day broadcast debut on BEN Television in December 2005. The first series aired from January - April 2006. The second series also aired on BEN Television from May - August 2007 in addition to the annual staging of the British Urban Film Festival - a unique event as it is the only one of its kind in the UK which is free to attend by the general public. Although the annual festival is free to attend, it does charge entry fees to film-makers who wish to submit their films in what is, according to Film London, 'an important and emerging genre which is not otherwise seen regularly in the capital's cinemas'. The Genesis Cinema in Whitechapel and The Oxford House in Bethnal Green are venues in London's East End forming part of the 2008 festival. The Stratford Picturehouse Cinema in Newham forms part of the 2009 festival which is being supported by 3 London boroughs: Newham, Tower Hamlets and Redbridge. The 2009 festival is also notable for its screening of 'Disoriented Generation', a privately financed UK independent film co-produced by and starring actor Wil Johnson (who also appears in the short film Colour Blind also premiering at the festival).The 2010 festival marked BUFF's 5th anniversary with the screening of 'Sus', based on the original stageplay written by Barrie Keeffe and starring Clint Dyer (who also co-produced the movie), Rafe Spall (who went onto star in the BBC 2 drama series 'The Shadow Line', Ralph Brown ('Withnail and I', 'Huge') and Anjela Lauren Smith ('Babymother', 24 Hours in London). Other high-profile screenings included rare video footage of N-Dubz in 'The Way We Were' and 'Bad Day', starring Claire Goose, Robbie Gee & Sarah Harding.The 2011 festival is being headlined by the UK premiere of 'David is Dying' at London's Trade Union Congress headquarters and stars Lonyo Engele, a former UK garage music artist in his debut acting role.April 2012 will mark the festival's return to television for the first time in 5 years with the launch of "BUFF Presents..." a strand of films previously screened at the British Urban Film Festival including 'Drink, Drugs, & KFC' directed by actor Aml Ameen and 'Before they were Dubz', a feature-length documentary which followed the UK Hip-Hop group N-Dubz when they first started out as teenagers over a decade ago. Directed by film journalist Jessie Grace Mellor, the documentary will have its broadcast premiere on Community Channel alongside other films including 'The Holiday', directed by Ida Akesson, and 'Special Delivery' directed by Geoff Searle. "BUFF Presents..." is slated to return for a second season in October 2012.October 12, 2012 will mark the return of the British Urban Film Festival at London's Trade Union Congress headquarters to be presented by actor Wil Johnson. The 2-day event (which is free to attend) will also host a 12-hour marathon of short films, documentaries, feature-length dramas plus Q&A sessions on October 13 at Oxford House in Bethnal Green.January 2013 will mark another milestone when BUFF becomes the first film festival in the UK to screen a sample of its festival selections via the BBC iplayer platform in conjunction with Community Channel.March 2013 will mark the launch of the inaugural BUFF Spring Season. The concept brings together an array of film programming "online, on-air and in person" in conjunction with ITV, Grime Daily, Genesis Cinema and The British Blacklist.com.On 2 May 2013 it was announced that the publisher-broadcaster Channel 4 would be hosting the opening 3 events of the 8th annual British Urban Film Festival at the company's headquarters in Horseferry Road, Central London. In addition, the festival (5–9 September) was to be headlined by the UK premiere screenings of "Calloused Hands" starring Andre Royo from the HBO series "The Wire", "Traveller" starring David Essex OBE, Jason Maza & Lois Winstone & the award-winning "Bloody Lip" written & directed by Adriel Leff. Coverage was hosted from Odeon West End in Leicester Square by actress Zawe Ashton ("Dreams of a Life"/"Fresh Meat (TV series)"). Actor Riz Ahmed ("The Reluctant Fundamentalist"/"Four Lions"/"Ill Manors"/"Shifty (film)") was among the official festival ambassadors.
