The Limelight!

On Sunday the New Saints were at All Saints Langport to be filmed!  This was for a new promotional video, being made by the Regeneration Taskforce at the CCT.

It is a sign of very good things to come for All Saints Langport, as the film is only being made about the best, most interesting, and most promising of the Regeneration Taskforce's projects, and right from the start, the youth empowerment and regeneration project at Langport was on the cards!  There were a lot of new skills to learn that day - being interviewed on camera isn't as easy as it looks!


Joe’s thoughts about the filming….
I really enjoyed my filming experience for the CCT Regeneration Taskforce DVD..  The camera crew were a great laugh and a pleasure to work with;  all though having three stranger’s, a camera and lots of bright lights shining in my face was rather intimidating.  I almost felt like I was being questioned by the police.  I’m happy I attended though as I’ve never worked with a professional film crew before and it was very interesting.

Charlotte's thoughts about the filming….
I was super nervous when we started but the film crew we’re lovely and very good at what they did, which made the process a little easier! All in all I would never have expected to be doing this kind of thing, it was an amazing experience and a great example of the new experiences I have come in to contact with by taking part in New Saints in Langport.

Grant’s thoughts about the filming….
I really enjoyed our filming adventure. It was great experience to meet the film crew and see the work that they do. They were very friendly and dedicated to what they do. I found the interview was quite intense and interesting. This was defiantly a great life skill to build and I’m sure there will be many more opportunities in future. It allowed time to also reflect on the journey we have all taken so far but also what will be achieved in the future. 

Once the videos finished I'll be able to post it on here so that you can see what we're talking about!
I'm looking forward to reflecting back on this experience in 5 years time and seeing how different the people, the building and Langport are.
