  • Drama Club at Uillinn

    Created 2016-02-15 by Alison Glennie

    Location: Multiple locations in and around Uillinn: West Cork Arts Centre and Skibbereen town - Co. Cork

    Duration: 2016-02-15 to 2016-05-08

Project Outline

As an artist my focus is on process over performance. However, in recognition of the public desire to view end product and to explore a different medium, it was decided to make a short film documenting the activities enjoyed by the participants attending the weekly drama workshops at West Cork Arts Centre. It was a challenging project, working around the existing workshop times & with difficulties gathering quality audio; the sound designer edited a great deal in post production. The participants were introduced to the medium of film and gained from this experience. The children were delighted to invite their families to view a screening at the end of term. The film now appears on West Cork Arts Centre YouTube channel.
