More About the Video Work Area
The Community Gallery incorporates a dedicated professional video
production department that caters for a 'script-to-screen' approach
to video making. This facility offers support for pre-production,
production and post-production filmmaking. The equipment used
consists of both MAC and PC based non-linear digital editing suites,
which are supported by both DV and Digital8 video cameras and
professional sound equipment. Our in-house production facilities are
able to accommodate professional, commercial and community
productions alike.
As well as enabling participatory group work and video productions on
varying scales, CAW also works on an individual basis with people who
have more specific requirements, thus allowing for freedom of
creative expression in a safe and nurturing environment.
By developing new, sustainable skills and experience with digital
video production equipment, video workshops and commissioned work can
result in an increased awareness of the media and the community at
large, greater personal development, experience of working as part of
a team, and an improvement in self-confidence.
Part of the empowerment process for the groups or individuals
involved in a project will often result in a private or public
gallery screening of a film, as a way in which to show work within
the wider community.
CAW is expanding its equipment in video production, and will be able
to offer community workshops and training in the following areas of
professional media production:
- Graphic animation
- Digital camera work/li>
- Digital non-linear editing using Adobe Premiere 6.5 OR Final
Cut Pro 3
- Sound recording for video
- The basics of professional media practice whilst shooting a
film.
The multi-media lab project leader is a professionally
trained filmmaker with over three years experience in commercial and
community arts practice.
Recent projects include 'People & places', a 15 minute short film
about social inclusion in South Town Leamington. This project
involved local people in the documentation of the cultural diversity
of Leamington south of the river.
Partners in film productions have included:
- Regenesis
- Barnardos
- Youth Offending Team (YOT)
- African Caribbean Project (ACP)
- Connexions
- Sydenham Neighbourhood Initiative (SYDNI)
- Warwick District Council
- Warwickshire County Council.
- Pupil Referral Unit
