At this year’s DocFest Hi8us South wants to involve documentary filmmakers in a dialogue with young people about building effective outreach and impact campaigns around documentary films – exploring the power of documentary beyond the box office.

 Shake! in February was like a breath of fresh air in the smog of negativity that many of us are experiencing. With Platform we’re getting ready for the second run of 2013 in August. In the meantime check out this short film from February’s workshop…  #TruthAndYouth at Sheffield DocFest brings together filmmakers and young activists from major documentary film projects with youth-led outreach campaigns to share ideas and learning about how documentary film can be used to make a difference.  Just out are four new promos we made for the Barbican Centre & Guildhall School of Music & Drama on the work of their merged Creative Learning department.  Shake! is a 5 day programme that provides young people with space to imagine what justice looks like, experiment with new ideas, learn new tools and fire up the imagination.  We’ve produced 4 new short films as part of the work we’ve been doing with Poplar HARCA housing association to help them increase resident participation and develop digital tools for community engagement.  The Spotlight Youth Centre is a “world-class youth centre” being built by Poplar HARCA to serve young people across the London Borough of Tower Hamlets…  In the midst of the climax of possibly the greatest event this city has ever seen, last Saturday (August 11th) at Rich Mix we screened the outcome of the first phase of our work with a group of young Bengali men in Bow West.  Olympic nostalgia? Check out some Hi8us South films made by young people with Team GB 2012 competitors.  We’ve always been fans of motiroti’s work. So we were looking forward to working on their latest promo video and, as it turns out, were right to. |
