Opportunities for filmmakers in Cornwall, South West England, UK - Effervescent

Emerging Film Artist needed

Effervescent is looking for an emerging film artist to work alongside five experienced arts practitioners in residence at Chulmleigh Community College in late July.  Effervescent has been commissioned to make a mummer-type play for the traditional Chulmleigh Fair with up to forty talented and gifted ten and eleven-year-old children. 

The film artist will work with a small group of children to document the process of making the performance, culminating in short film.  The artist must be available to work 21st, 22nd, 25th, 26th and 27th July, and should hold (or be willing to swiftly obtain) public liability insurance and an enhanced disclosure through the Criminal Records Bureau.

Effervescent can offer a small fee, and the school is looking into supplying accommodation for the whole team throughout the project.

We are looking for someone who is kind, calm, creative, and who can make this an enjoyable and rewarding learning experience for the documentary crew.  Effervescent is committed to working with children and young people in ways which raise self-esteem, interdependence and ambition.  Please look at our website www.eff.org.uk/ to get a feel for the sort of work we do.
