    Description

    Theatre, Talks & TV  – Volunteering with Free Film Training

    This is a volunteer opportunity to make film & video for public benefit. No prior skills are required. The charity WORLDwrite’s spring 26 train and shoot volunteer package is designed to help you make factual programmes with us. A dynamic blend of online and face-to-face sessions, all volunteers receive immersive camera training using WORLDwrite’s top-end film equipment and invaluable hands-on experience behind the lens. This opportunity is open to everyone, regardless of your level of experience, whether you’re a seasoned Hollywood director or have never touched a camera. During the package we will be filming play readings of C.L.R James Black Jacobins and inspiring talks at Hackney Film Festival. One evening a week via Zoom and some weekend days face to face is all it takes! All volunteers are credited for their input, references are provided along with travel expenses to shoots and lunches are provided on training & shoot days.
