Premiere screening of our short film at QFT

Here we are at the showing of our short film 'Tunnel Vision' at QFT where we also got our certificates in Active Citizenship. We really liked our film and felt very proud of what we did.

Date for screening on 24th May 2008 at 5pm.

At last we have a date for the premiere screening of the film we made which are calling 'Tunnel Vision'. Its nearly finished now and its just over 5 minutes long. Ben is finishing the edit for us.

It will be shown with a making of documentary of the project and there will presentations of the ASDAN certificates and discussions afterwards. There'll be some drinks and crisps before the film at QFT from 4.30pm.

We're looking at some designs for the film poster and DVD covers that Tim is preparing who did the storyboard workshop with us. We'll upload the one we picked next.

The films will be out on DVD soon too. More information from Marion m.campbell@qub.ac.uk

Post production

After we finished shooting the film, Ben Jones and Marion did an editing workshop. We looked at the rough cut of the short film and discussed the scenes. Then Chantelle, Darzo, Stephanie and Una composed the music for the dance scene. We couldn't use 10Cent's soundtrack used at the shoot because it would cost thousands of pounds to pay for the copy right to use it.

Effects make up

Smurff got a professional make up job done for the tunnel scene.

Shooting during the Bridging the Divide 3 project

Here are some images from the scenes 3-5. Pictured are some of the cast during rehearsals and a photo of the extras who came to help from Tigers Bay. It was a freezing day in early March and everyone worked really hard to get the scenes finished in very cold and windy conditions.

Shooting the first scenes

We shot the first scenes in February around the Queen's University Campus. Then we shot scene 5 near Yorkgate Station in March and it was a freezing cold day. Some young people came from Tiger's Bay who volunteered to be extras in that scene which we really appreciated.

What We Are Doing

I'm one of the teenagers from the Mornington Community programme. We are doing a film on how two friends are fighting with each other and then their girlfriends find out about it, so they make up a plan to go down to the place were they will be fighting and they form up a group. So by the time they get down to the tunnel the girls are there dancing. I'm not going to spoil the film for you, so if you want you can wait to see it when we show it up in Queens Film Theatre at the end of April.
