Storytelling workshop -the green screen!

Pink, more pink,more pink wristbands and more people willing to get involved in the pink event.

Today was the workshops day. For instance, there was the “My own campaign” workshop, wich was about making advocacy campaigns –deciding about the target, the audience, the message and the storyboard for the video of the campaign, working in small groups.

Then, there was the “Vlogging” workshop, where Alex, a.k.a. Nerimon -a young, intelligent, English guy who easily generates 30.000 views on one video, told participans how to make their own vlog. Here is Nerimon asking for advice before the workshop ;)

I attended the “On the spot” workshop, wich was about making your own short film in only one take –without switching your camera off, which is more complicated than you can imagine. They showed us some examples on what it is possible to do –some of them really awesome, as well as how to operate the camera, lights and the rest of the stuff. We worked in small groups and during today we will have our film done. Check it out:

Last, in the “Storytelling” workshop the participans have to know each other. They have to make a story of two people who met and find a gap bewteen them. All of this using a green screen. Here is Maren, who run the workshop, talking about it:

Afterwards, we the strangers took a bus to Rotterdam, where the Stranger Festival also takes place, to have dinner and continue with the party with dj’s and rappers.

So let’s wait for the final films today. Everything is possible with all that creative minds around.

Today: more workshops and the big event: the Stranger Festival Award Ceremony
