CAP-New Media Foundation

Offering training & hands-on experience in music & film production, software development, electronic game creation and Internet radio. The first programme we will set up is the Filmmaking Academy

CAP-Film Making Academy

Introduction

The Community Action Programme’s Film Making Academy is a programme that allows people with an interest in film production to express their creativity. Members will meet to learn about the structure of a production team and to give them a chance to experience working within that role.

Throughout the year the academy will produce short films. This will give the members hands-on experience of working within different production roles and to see their finished works.

Our approach is to get liked minded people together to write, direct, produce, shoot and act in small productions. These productions will then be edited and submitted to some of the local film festivals.

Objectives

Our objective is to divert and prevent people from engaging in criminal activities by providing a positive activity for young people that will give them a chance to experience life in a film production environment that can take them from an interest in filmmaking to a possible career.

Benefits to the community

We will offer:

  • Positive activities for the local community.
  • Education in film production.
  • Hands-on experience in filmmaking.
  • Showing short films at local film festivals, on YouTube, on Myspace and within the CAP Filmmaking Academy website.
  • Networking with other likeminded people.
  • A chance to meet celebrities & other people from within the film industry.
  • Trips to some of the big TV & film studios.
  • Learning the correct formats for script writing.
  • Acting.
  • The art of Filmmaking, including directing, producing, editing and audio & video capture.
  • Effects
We will take the members on a journey from idea to completion. Members will be able to experience the different roles before selecting an activity that suites their interests and abilities.
