The making of Beacons!
Summer School 2021 has been a whirl-wind and we look forward to the Junction Arts’ broadcast of Our Place on 29th September – it’s been a fantastic opportunity to link up with 6 other Arts Organisations and share what is special in the East Midlands.
Here are a few glimpses into our ‘bubbled-up’ summer school where no-one was allowed to chat in the kitchen! We look forward to a more mixed-up experience next year!
Here’s a couple of animation sets which you’ll recognise in the final videos!
Here’s an insight into the story design process – fantastic work from Thomas and Archie!
A special feature this year courtesy of #OurPlace2021 with Junction Arts – Virtual Reality art! Young people transported into their own world to paint in 3D. This work will feature in a landscape original by VR artist, Kayleigh Eliza. The whole Our Place project will be showcased online on 29th September.
And there’s always music! This year we will be at the New Mills Youth Festival on 29th August playing our mixed up set!
In the last 2 weeks around 10 young people have learned to use a sewing machine – these two sewed the trousers for their prisoners in their film…
And so we reach the end of Tall Tales Summer School 2021! It’s been more than a little manic, with no time for posting socials… so we hope you like these few pics to give a flavour: The Party Bus Bubble have all got involved in creating a dance piece – designed as dance for film.
And here are the full final films to enjoy with some popcorn!
