Are you, or your kids, the next hard-hitting documentary maker just waiting for a chance to see what you’ve got?
BaborĂ³ wants to help any budding filmmakers find their feet with a workshop this weekend on how to capture the heart of a subject in just one minute of film.
During this workshop with documentary filmmakers James Ward and Susan Roche you’ll learn how to create one-minute personal video portraits.
Capture aspects of your life; the things like, you love, your pet peeves or what you flat out loooaaathe. Bring along a personal item like a football, instrument, just anything that makes you, You.
In this age where every moment is a potential selfie, this workshop will guide you to consider the sort of content you share with the world and how to make it awesome
