Final Outcome:
We hosted a series group contribution sessions over a 3 month period with the core group. The idea of the workshops were to excite and develop young people’s skills in design, film journalism and media in order to generate necessary creative materials for an interactive DVD and magazine that combine to create the ‘U-Turn Project’.
The Interactive DVD would be a key part of communication in:
Alleviating gang tension
Supporting Respect & Understanding
Intergenerational misconceptions
Encouraging intergenerational dialogue
Changing negative perception e.g. Wearing of Hoodies
Challenging Prejudice
The Final outcome:
The U-Turn Project – Young people telling it like it is, on the issues that matter.
The group narrated the video, and came with ideas for the content as part of the workshop sessions.
The menu was themed around conversations that are likely on a train station platform. It allows you to choose which discussion or topic area you wish to view…
The interactive DVD a sustainable educational resource for youth and community leaders was designed to support and aid discussions important to young people.
