Film Cuts Club

 

CameraThe Film Cuts Club is our filmmaking club for young people with additional needs, run by filmmakers Mark and Benn Turton.  We have been funded by BBC Children in Need for nearly 9 years, with the Saturday club at The Vineyard, Glossop offering a welcoming and inclusive environment for anyone with a passion for films.  The group starts from age 8, and has a fantastic mix of abilities and a few older young volunteers.

Flying on greenscreenThe club aims to teach the full process of film making to all participants, with collaboration over discussion of current work, progress and aims.

Everyone takes a turn at the different roles including writing and planning, directing, camera work, acting and then editing and post-production.  With an overview of how these roles work, people then specialise in an area that suits them most and they form teams where each person’s strengths support the others in the group.

More experienced and older members are encouraged to become more independent and to support new starters.

“It’s been amazing – working with everyone, working with all the people who make it work – get our heads together, make a good film and we’re just enjoying ourselves basically – I love it”

We also run sessions at Chapel en le Frith after school club for one term.  Last year they produced a magazine-style show, with features drawn from ideas across the group (Chapel TV Blast in the playlist above).

 

 

“It’s sort of a free rein thing as well – where as most of the stuff they do in lessons… is sort of directed by ‘well this is what we’re doing today’ – they’ve not done this before and it quite surprised me how well they’ve thrown themselves into it.”  Teaching Assistant.
