The theme for 2016 is making a movie titled Monsters VS. Machines and festival goers will be able to get involved in making it, whether it's taking a starring role, being an extra or finishing off the set – the Deer Shed website has details on how to join the crew.

As well as this ambitious production Deer Shed will also be laying on loads more activities for the film buffs in their audience - exploring everything from story-telling to running acting workshops, learning to do accents, composing film scores and everything in-between.

The Deer Shed Festival will return for a seventh outing in 2016 and will also offer arts, science, comedy, cabaret, spoken word, theatre, literature, workshops, sports and swing ball that make the festival so special.
