29 Days: 19 Feb: Movie Techniques

Today we had a movie making workshop with Steve Carolan from Shoot Yer Mouth Off. We watched two short movies and talked about them. We talked about what issue we would make a movie about, and storyboarded it on a flip chart.

Our movie was about the problems disabled people have trying to keep friendships. Some people move house a lot. Some people go to different day centres or schools or live a long way from their friends. Some people can't go out on their own. Some people can't talk so it's hard to ask for the help they need to to see their friends.

I was in the dissappearing friends scene and I talked to Steve on camera, but I had to go home at dinner time, so I don't know how the movie turned out. We will see it next week.
