I led a team of young secondary school students in making this film. I basically just helped them solidify the script and then stepped back and let them get on with it! They did a bang up job, I’m sure you’ll agree.
The best thing is it’s been nominated for a First Light award in the Best Animation category! This means we’ll get to go to the awards ceremony at the Odeon in Leicester Square with a bunch of famous actors and stuff! Holy moly! I’d better iron my shirt.
First Light funds films made by young people, it’s a pretty great charity. All the other nominations look stellar, check ‘em out here! Wish us luck!
Since I moved to London I’ve only been doing stuff like this in Cambridge. I’d really like to start leading workshops in London! If you or anyone you know might be interested please get in touch: simon@simonpanrucker.com
