6.00 am today Quest 2 are on the way to visit the BBC TV Studios in White City, London, in the old banger of a school bus kindly driven by Head of Art, Mr Oakley. I have no idea what you have been working on, he said, at the planning meeting regarding logistics for the journey, but how will I recognise you in the city? Mrs Leach had unearthed funds for this unique opportunity of a scriptwriting day and, as five black sheep had been working together on a film project without a plan, it seemed as good a place as any to learn how to knit together (retrospectively) a narrative for their action movie. The dream is to make a short film, with music and share on YouTube.
A rabbit, clown and some black sheep undertake an amazing adventure around Westbury and beyond!
What is the story?
An exciting participatory arts project created by twelve nominated students from Matravers School, Westbury & Jill Carter, Social Engagement Artist. Exploring the theme of identity, the lads directed and undertook a series of performative journeys. Using a collection of found objects (toys), they set out to explore a world of work & play, responding to folk, everyday situations and environments along the way. The hugely creative process was documented with photography, film, drawings, dialogue & journals. There was potential to unearth, stories to unfold and dreams of a large rabbit, clown and group of black sheep ... finding their way, discovering new friends, standing out from the crowd, and truly becoming somebody!
