creativity through photography - film and new technology
 



Over the past eight years community groups have created fantastic short films, made beautiful photographic exhibitions, designed powerful graphic novels and created witty animations. Participants as young as 5 have made, and appeared in, their own feature films and retired people have created complex digital photographic compositions. Providing a fun, rewarding and creative means of self-expression is at the heart of the process.

In addition to participatory arts projects, extensive work with Somerset Early Years Development has culminated in a series of multilingual DVDs that have been distributed to childcare settings throughout Somerset. Other production based work has been delivered with with: Somerset Health Authority, South Somerset Mind, Somerset County Youth Service, Barnardo's, the Rural Youth project and South Somerset Homes.
