Battle of Bannockburn educational film to be made in high definition
The National Trust for Scotland has announced that it is to make a new version of its "Battle of Bannockburn" educational drama currently playing at the Stirling heritage centre.
The original film, made in the 1980s, will be replaced with a high definition version using the latest video techniques, which should offer visitors an "awe-inspiring educational film".
The ten-minute film will combine computer-generated imagery and human actors.
Film director Craig Collinson said, "As a Scottish filmmaker, getting to visually interpret the Battle of Bannockburn on this scale is a rare privilege.
"My aim is to capture not only some of the sheer drama of how the battle unfolded - the incredibly intimidating site of Edward's vast army, the jaw dropping duel that took place between Bruce and one of the English knights and the awesome sight of the Scottish spearman advancing."
