Sheffield Doc/Fest… Rated!

More than a week after the Sheffield Doc/Fest, our team have returned with new perspectives on our projects. Some of the directing styles used gave us great ideas that we hope to incorporate and develop into our 60 second films.

The ball is finally rolling and our weekly team meetings have started! We meet every week at the Roundhouse in Camden, and reside in the creative suites to let out imaginations flow! The first meeting went well, mainly filled with discussions about our projects and really focusing on what we want to get out of this project, as well as a brainstorming session on Olympic values.

Introduction to Documentary Film-making training

This three day residential training session at Aston University, Birmingham was lots of fun! On the first day we analysed the concepts of documentaries and the different formats that they come in. We watched lots of different film documentaries and discussed what made them original, so we started to think about how we can incorporate that into our own ones, which we will eventually make. The second day was much more practical which involved brainstorming ideas, pitching and shooting a short film to get us into the swing of things! It was good practice, as we will have to be repeating these steps very soon.

Many thanks to award-winning documentary filmmaker, Mandy Chang, from the Grierson Trust.
