Video Poems
The students who had worked with Andy Craven Griffiths took their poems to a two hour video poetry workshop led by Joc Mack, Martin Sercombe and Britta Pollmuller. Their brief was to adapt their creative writing to the video screen, after further developing the performance skills they would need to deliver their poems to camera.
The session included warm up games, preparing treatments, rehearsals and film making sessions in front of a blue screen, in outdoor locations or in a dance studio. For a detailed guide to leading a similar activity in school, please download the worksheet on the right. The video clips are examples of finished work by the students from Stalham High School.
