Budding Filmakers take over Project Ability

 

We received some funding from First Light to make four 5-10min films from existing scripts created by young people at Project Ability during Easter 2009.

In June, the young people involved focused on pre-production, planning and development. This month, the production phase started! Each group took part in an intensive week of production (5th – 9th and 12th – 16th July), and by the look of it, they had a lot of fun!

In August and September, they will start the post production / marketing phase, and will premier the films in October 2010, we hope to see you there!

The Trongate 103 Foyer is full of colours today!

On Saturday, Project Ability launched the banners made by children during the Summer Art Rammy workshops, and invited other children to decorate the windows with colourful acetates! And what an amazing result it is! The banners and window art are only on display until tomorrow, so come by for a quick peek!
