Wanted -Film Production Team

Creative Partnerships Stoke on Trent has been working with schools in the city since 2005, providing opportunities for teachers and pupils to work alongside creative partners to improve creative learning and teaching. As Creative Partnerships nationally enters a new phase of activity, we want to mark the impact the programme has had so far for teachers, children and young people, school leaders and creative practitioners. We are looking for a team of filmmakers who can collaborate with a small group of young filmmakers to create a film that will explore this impact in a dynamic and engaging style, for an audience of educationalists, creative partners, parents, and other stakeholders. There are two elements that will make this a successful project – an authentic and rich collaboration between professional filmmakers and young people, and a useful finished film of the highest quality. The bulk of the work will take place in the summer term, with the deadline for delivery being mid September 2008. As a guide, we envisage the film will be around 30 minutes long. The budget for the project is in the region of £25,000.
