WORLDwrite
WORLDwrite is an education charity with an award winning film facility and training programme and now an online news channel called WORLDbytes. We train young people in all aspects of film making and news programming.
The charity provides volunteers with well structured professional help in all areas from camera to DVD authoring to interview techniques, to presenting and even writing articles to accompany the films. All by a talented pool of peripatetic tutors. We now have 5 DVCAM cameras, 5 mini DV cameras, 4 AVID editing suites, a dedicated studio we have refurbished complete with blue screen back drop, auto cue, sound mixer and big screen for viewings. While we never have enough space or cameras or equipment and maintenance and upgrades are expensive, we are nonetheless able to tutor up to 30 young volunteers at any one time at our centre in Hackney, London.
We have developed a really successful format for training days which include intensive learning and practice with shoots for actual programmes.
We offer this training constantly to ensure volunteers have the right resources (or as much as we can afford) and the right support to produce film programmes that take up issues of local and global inequality, tackle disadvantages and celebrates what's good in a creative way.

Participants will learn all aspects of camera, sound, lighting & presenting and shoot actual programmes for broadcast. No skills or previous experience is required and all travel expenses will be paid and meals provided over an exciting three days of shooting in London.
Young people are told they are 'guaranteed' a job or training if they're more...
