What's Happening

Watch It

Inspired by the award winning Hi8us South L8R series, students at Agincourt House, 115 and Chalcot Schools are creating their own video responses.  The films are written, shot, performed and edited by the students with support from their teachers and filmmakers and artists from Hi8us South.

Watch It is a drama and filmmaking project for young people in 3 Pupil Referral Units in Camden, targeting excluded students and students with special educational needs. Up to 10 young people from each of the schools will participate in 6 drama and filmmaking sessions facilitated by Hi8us South and will be involved in learning the whole film making process including editing. The adult practitioners from the schools will receive basic training so they can continue film making projects with young people. A creative toolkit for practitioners will be developed as part of the project.

The project will conclude with a screening of the films for students, parents and siblings at The Roundhouse.

Watch It is funded by Big Lottery Awards For All and Camden Out of Schools Learning Service.
