Port Augusta Council youth workshop 1 - 2005 April - Port Augusta SA
PROCESS: 15 young people from Port Augusta made this film as part of the ongoing Hero Project outreach program.
The Hero Project trained the participants in digital media skills to script, storyboard, film, record sound, and edit their films during a 3-day workshop.
OUTCOMES: Country is a way of life, mate – meet the original cowboys at a Country & Western talent quest…
Aimee and her team made a beautiful short documentary about the local music festival. Keepin’ It Country shows that there is a lot more to Country & Western than meets the ear… One of most valuable lessons was to always monitor your sound – a fabulous interview with an up-and-coming star got lost in the rumble of the passing road trains…
SCREENINGS & AWARDS: The film screened at Come Out 2007 Youth Film Fest at the Mercury Cinema in Adelaide.
IMPACT & FEEDBACK: Aimee continued her progress as a young filmmaker and gained access to the Flinders University Screen Studies.
