Summer School 2007
Once again, following last year’s success, the Merthyr Media Project’s Summer School 2007 took place during August. Based on our experiences of making Asboland with Karl Francis during last year Summer School this year’s activity was focused on making a short film based on a script idea from one of last year’s MMP beneficiaries, Jordan Davies. Jordan’s idea was to make a film about bicycle thieves (which OK might have been done before), but with the added twist of looking at it from the point of view of the bicycle. The resulting film Lifecycle is currently in post production, so keep coming back to this web site for news of when and where you can see this year’s production.
