Pupils at Redstart Primary School recently stepped into the world of filmmaking as they took part in an exciting project for the upcoming Chard together event, the ‘Festival of Friendship,’ scheduled for Saturday, 22nd March.
A huge thank you goes to Richard Tomlinson, who generously dedicated his time and expertise to guide the pupils through the filmmaking process. Richard Tomlinson is working with the Chard Community Hub – he’s a freelance film-maker.
Pupils had a fascinating morning learning about the various elements involved in producing a film, from camera techniques to sound recording and directing.
The hands-on experience provided invaluable insights into the creative world of filmmaking.
“We can’t wait to see the results!” said a school spokesperson. “The children were incredibly enthusiastic, and this opportunity has sparked a real interest in storytelling and visual media.”
The completed film will debut at the Festival of Friendship, an event designed to celebrate community connections and togetherness.
The Academy encourages everyone to come along and support the talented pupils of Redstart Primary School as they showcase their creative achievements.
