Getting down to filming!

Now that the group have learned how to use the camera, set up shots as well as basic editing skills, its time to put it all into practice. Learners began using the camera at different opportunities during the weeks and months following the video training workshop, working on storyboards and ideas about how potential short films might take shape. Becoming familiar and confident with the camera was one of the most important things for the group. Some learners focused on filming aspects of their own professional practices, focusing on different techniques and creative processes they engage in. Events and exhibitions the adult learners were involved in were also filmed.

The next phase of our Erasmus+ partnership is a mid way meeting of the three partners in February 2016 in Amsterdam. This will be an opportunity for the group to share their learning, show the short films they’ve made so far and discuss their experiences and any issues. Niall the editor will also be on hand to give support and expertise.

 

 

About Channel3p

Channel 3 Project is a two year Erasmus+ partnership between Mayfield Arts Cork, Rocket Artists Brighton and Kuntswerkplaats Amsterdam. All three organisations work with adult learners in supported studio settings. We aim to build on the relationships already formed between all three organisations through our 2 year Grundtvig Life Long Learning partnership by further exploring our learning methods and practices. Using video as a tool, we will explore and share artistic skills and methodologies while sharing our learning with a wider audience. Channel 3 Project is a unique opportunity for our learners to promote the abilities of artists with learning disabilities in choosing an approach that will transcend communication and language barriers. During our two years we will exchange creative ideas, travel to each others cities, converse online while having lots of fun!
