Regulations are as follows: no filming near check in, security or bomb disposal squads; carry the pass at all times; and no eating near expensive filming equipment!<br />That's just about what they said, anyway...<br />So that's sorted then. So for tomorrow - Good luck, guys! Have a fantastic time, and we'll be thinking of you!<br /><br />Ellie (and everyone at DMG)inconvenient_truthhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17888983434920764431noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064385752437326203.post-3514956126245242292007-08-04T14:24:00.000-07:002007-08-04T14:33:12.297-07:00Fancy a Dance picsBit of a retrospective post here, with some pics of the group sweating away, filming in the sun at the Tea Dance in the market square.

Yet more filming practice was undertaken this week by us lot, when we all piled into the Arts Centre and worked with a group of children and young people who were on a scriptwriting course.<br />Specially comissioned as well! Getting some money out of this hopefully, as well as practice and recognition.<br />So! The idea was that a load of children would write scripts about their (or somebody else's) lives, and then we'd all come in and help them edit the writing for film. Yesterday and today we actually shot the parts for three short films about ghosts, vampires, dragons and winged demons (and tarot cards, fake blood and really dramatic makeup), and we'll be editing them together next week. The films will be made into DVDs for kids and parents, and RAID and the Media Group will be credited. Which is nice!<br />Time for some photos then?<br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZDTKeK3SCBSDj4Axgahiu17OU8I4utTqF6in8g2jT-gBW5dpujvGleAMNEh5baIL172xCUPRQawlad2wlo2ECmdZCA4QwfQdLM_UhG_K6H4XeER0i4xiUubvVBQ2vFkI2sHo9Z-EgMkc/s1600-h/Image008.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZDTKeK3SCBSDj4Axgahiu17OU8I4utTqF6in8g2jT-gBW5dpujvGleAMNEh5baIL172xCUPRQawlad2wlo2ECmdZCA4QwfQdLM_UhG_K6H4XeER0i4xiUubvVBQ2vFkI2sHo9Z-EgMkc/s320/Image008.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5094611613435056114" /></a><br />Our new director, Adam:<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrlOhgm4CLgAcXqRYLaEut5zPvFndilxvyahyneRfkwdB2_CqdGmTZvFNpfHvIisVFadV2QoMCBUb0mkI3cAP8TssqSbNcnT9KGLzNRGlnv5khGpwDO0em6_khzkeRhSCgdzIXNM7_g1E/s1600-h/DSCN2274.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhrlOhgm4CLgAcXqRYLaEut5zPvFndilxvyahyneRfkwdB2_CqdGmTZvFNpfHvIisVFadV2QoMCBUb0mkI3cAP8TssqSbNcnT9KGLzNRGlnv5khGpwDO0em6_khzkeRhSCgdzIXNM7_g1E/s320/DSCN2274.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5094611622024990722" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfoGdXNbB_Cs8aVeskbU0G530jZnd0VYZm50BStvO0UUU4EVW1LcWdux4mmIpbvmIIGIOs0uu1bQjTf476LjloXnY99BYwi2weco14uK6RvFkLFvog6v5Nd8lUxv5ElWCGOzHtGPysyR8/s1600-h/DSCN2272.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfoGdXNbB_Cs8aVeskbU0G530jZnd0VYZm50BStvO0UUU4EVW1LcWdux4mmIpbvmIIGIOs0uu1bQjTf476LjloXnY99BYwi2weco14uK6RvFkLFvog6v5Nd8lUxv5ElWCGOzHtGPysyR8/s320/DSCN2272.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5094611630614925330" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYxGp_ifN9CkK52bvyL6lCC7xgSq2ifb1-UPCYGtefkXuQX0kgTyWvwCr5Jbd7soTBxhJBdbhGKRZzqek36pRGZZ-tufdf6Ly9I0FXDA6qdLqWTp22BF0T3oPr2_0dS5Eg3om1C4a-1Nc/s1600-h/DSCN2280.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYxGp_ifN9CkK52bvyL6lCC7xgSq2ifb1-UPCYGtefkXuQX0kgTyWvwCr5Jbd7soTBxhJBdbhGKRZzqek36pRGZZ-tufdf6Ly9I0FXDA6qdLqWTp22BF0T3oPr2_0dS5Eg3om1C4a-1Nc/s320/DSCN2280.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5094611634909892642" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLTU8UdDzha6oiRjUByV4SUBEvYWyYTtGVntZS7KvtkfErEC8QTdvHvYUve9UD13dIWUhdLW2hih-4ewSd0RLFt2WMNIFNAbM-q2GPcQRH9I7N3VNEDTEmflWUqSsowJnk6BgfhVwB6us/s1600-h/DSCN2283.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLTU8UdDzha6oiRjUByV4SUBEvYWyYTtGVntZS7KvtkfErEC8QTdvHvYUve9UD13dIWUhdLW2hih-4ewSd0RLFt2WMNIFNAbM-q2GPcQRH9I7N3VNEDTEmflWUqSsowJnk6BgfhVwB6us/s320/DSCN2283.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5094611643499827250" /></a><br /><br />Lovely!<br />more to follow...Darlington Raidhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03396500182721037259noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064385752437326203.post-14636521457523675032007-07-19T08:51:00.000-07:002007-07-19T08:55:01.313-07:00After Fancy a Dance!Well we made it though a day of music, dancing and old women! we got some cool stuff which we are in the process of editing now.

We will post another blog when we get back, wish us luck.<br /><br />DarrenDarlington Raidhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03396500182721037259noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064385752437326203.post-82991222832995459262007-07-11T07:06:00.001-07:002007-07-11T09:51:33.487-07:00Alternate Dinner Gala EditSo, we had the serious edit, and now comes the rather nonsensical one.

I met Peter from the Bremen Media Workshop yesterday, and we are going to explore the idea of producing short stories about everyday life here for the "Open Channel", a local TV station. You can see something of them at <a href="http://www.ok-bremen.de/ho/ho/home.php">http://www.ok-bremen.de/ho/ho/home.php</a><br /><br />I mentioned the RAID project, and all your wonderful work, and there is an interest in screening shorts from the project if it were possible to make them. As a start, I suspect the story about Grace's ballet school would go down well, with maybe a longer interview with Grace about the school, her love of ballet, and a couple more of the shots of the school we did the other week. They are looking for 5 minute shorts. Let me know if you're interested. Maybe a series about some of the young people going to Lesotho would be good to make for the RAID project anyway, and not too difficult to organise?inconvenient_truthhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17888983434920764431noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064385752437326203.post-25464723492488869442007-07-09T07:11:00.000-07:002007-07-10T06:48:06.285-07:00Dinner Gala Edit!Dah dahhh!

The film training is going really well and as I'm busy working in another part of the media workshop its great to hear the group discussing and debating the process of making short film clips together. Its also great to see all the energy buzzing around the place and hear all the laughing as they argue about the 'song of the day' and lame youtube videos......mmm...skivers! Anyway, the video diaries are well underway and the clips will be a great way of seeing the changes as the project develops. It was lovely to see the confidence of the team at the Gala Dinner last week as they used the film equipment unselfconsciously. Darren had to eat his posh dinner very fast though. <br /><br />Planning Ahead<br />Next big task for the Media Group and RAID (aside from the trip itself...coming up very fast)is to start planning how to promote the finished film in early 2008. Lots of ideas in hand and a MediaBox workshop in Newcastle later this month for the trainers to discuss them at. Great feeling of support at the moment.Darlington Raidhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03396500182721037259noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064385752437326203.post-81764187784503998322007-07-05T13:24:00.000-07:002007-07-05T13:27:24.000-07:00Scriptwriter - filming opportunity - EllieRighto, quick thursday night post after the RAID meeting. Please, people, get on here and talk your hearts out!<br />Tomorrow we're off to meet the scriptwriter who is running the workshops at the end of the month, the product of which we should be filming to earn some money for the trip (as well as gaining filming experience).<br />We'll let you know how that goes, and the details of what we'll be doing, on here.<br />Gooood luck to us.Darlington Raidhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03396500182721037259noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064385752437326203.post-85581770221444166862007-07-02T07:43:00.000-07:002007-07-02T07:57:56.059-07:00Gala FilmingToday we looked over the material filmed at the dinner gala to establish a short clip of the main features of the event. We managed to get a reasonable amount of usefull shots that could be used in the editing process and managed to express some unique ideas of how we intended to make the film. We're particulary proud of a scene where we choreographed a tracking shot whereby we followed glasses from members of the gala, leading us to a final point in the centre of the room in which the gala was held.<br /><br />The shots fit together reasonably well and we felt that they established the purpose of the short, which was to give a general idea of the event. We found the sound part of the short the hardest to organise due to lack of continuous sound, but managed to solve the problem though looping background sounds over the shots, which worked well. We should be able to complete the short in our next meeting.<br /><br />Song of the day: Torn - Natalie Imbruglia<br />Video of the day: Japaneese Tetris TV show<br /><br />By ShaneDarlington Raidhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03396500182721037259noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5064385752437326203.post-31268003170916645732007-07-02T01:56:00.000-07:002007-07-02T01:58:21.252-07:00Gala Dinner!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgX-HUozPyOv1yAQtkefkpMSD0TNcEaubDl_h45411W5PH6uwRcE06aHtqFtLIBpk0W8g657NtR0ulg0hBlKGfEezQDnwaosWOTr3785ZZyCKtZwfn8E2mmtPrx9lgZohPEqOCUTK-Du7s/s1600-h/Gala+Dinner1.jpg"><img style="display:block;
