Katja Frimberger’s Film Work

Katja regularly collaborates (as actress, producer, educator) on narrative based film projects with filmmaker Simon Bishopp.

Together they led on three film and digital animation education projects for care-experienced children and young people in Scotland (Little Animation Studio; UAnimate and Scotland Our New Home) collaborating with stakeholders in the charity/education sector. Their projects received funding through Creative Scotland, the Paul Hamlyn Foundation and the School for Social Entrepreneurs.
