BUDDING Spielbergs are being urged to sign up for a challenge that could earn them a fortnight filming in the Bahamas.

Organisers are surprised at the lack of entries from Dorset in the 14 Islands Film Challenge, a search for the most talented filmmakers across the UK.

With Bournemouth's Arts University College one of the UK's top centres for young filmmakers, students are being encouraged to submit entries before Saturday's deadline (October 31).

Pieces should be about an inspirational person from the community and winners will spend two weeks in the Bahamas, with a chance to compete for a £14,000 cash prize.
