MEDIA TRAINING OUT WEST
Community TV Trust [CTVT] has launched a media training project in West Cornwall winning a commission from Cornwall Neighbourhoods for Change (CN4C). This local regeneration project is steering a wide-ranging programme to engage people in imaginative routes back to employment. Media and IT training is one of these routes.
DESIGNATED TRAINEES a residents association in Camborne ... the Humphry Davy School, XL class, in Penzance ... and the St Ives Reminiscence Project ...
The XL pupils excelled and have made a film about the proposed skateboard park due to be built on the recreation ground opposite the school.
In St Ives, a group of older media makers pitched up and started work on a variety of video production ventures. The range of experience in the team is wide but everyone gets on well and some excellent material has begun to emerge - including a film report on a local arts course and the first fruits of local history recording with the President of the Reminiscence Project, local lady Annie Allen. Annie's crystal clear memory took her effortlessly back to the Thirties and even the late Twenties.
In Camborne, filmmaking made a promising start on a range of projects, from doucmentary to oral history and a photographic idea for video.
"ST IVES.TV" To assist in the general development of community media in Cornwall, Community TV Trust has launched "St Ives.TV" click here, in the same mould as its London project "Southwark.TV". Local partners are invited to apply for this no-cost venture. Free hosting and project support are on offer.
