Lights, Camera, Action!

Melbourne Film Makers 2008

The Melbourne Film Makers is back with even more fun packed filming activities!

The Melbourne Film Makers was established in August 2007 as a pilot project after requests ‘reeled’ in from local youths for a film and media club to take place at the Melbourne Centre.

With generous support from the Fishergate ward-City of York Council and Screen Yorkshire, The Melbourne Film Makers 2008 is a free and exciting opportunity, for young people between the ages of 8-13 years old, who attend Space 109, Fishergate and St.George’s Primary Schools to learn new skills that are required for filmmaking by working alongside professionals.

The Melbourne Film Makers have the unique opportunity to creatively engage with their local community along with learning about camera work, editing, storyboarding, script writing, sound recording, making a soundtrack, interviewing, acting and directing.

The weekly workshops will take place every Thursday at 4pm until 5:30 pm from January the 17th until March the 20th 2008 (excluding half-term), at The Melbourne Centre.

Short films by the Melbourne Film Makers Coming Soon!!!
