Stage 1 – Image Generation

On Friday 29^th January 6pm - 8pm

This month’s Friday Night Surgery session will be dedicated to creating images that represent the worlds community to us. Using various methods, what ever that rocks your world - drawing , photography, action and movement.

Stage 2 – Splicing and Dicing

These images will be spliced and diced during the week that follows to create a short film / digital backdrop / VJ experiment.

Stage 3 – Music Making

On the evening of World Community Arts Day, there will be music specially created by a group of young people from across North Staffordshire and Shropshire who are part of the SoundProof project with Make Some Noise and B Arts.

All participants at stages 1, 2, 3 will receive a copy of our audiovisual experiment to keep.

Stage 4 - Going Online
