Pandora's Box Filmmaking Workshop
for Girls and Young Women
Monday 13th February – Thursday 16th February 2017 at the Stockwell Community Centre
With Cinema Screening Event held at the Ritzy Brixton
During this exciting storytelling and filmmaking workshop, girls and young women aged 11-17 filmed their own short films about women's roles in society and things they feel passionate about in their own lives. The project was delivered by the Documentary Film Makers Cooperative in partnership with the Self Empowerment for Life Foundation (SELF) and the Independent Film Trust with funding gratefully received from the National Lottery Awards for All.
The films the girls and young women produced on the workshop were shown at a public screening at the Ritzy Cinema in May 2017. The event was a tremendous success. The participants gave speeches and recited poems on topics their films addressed and engaged in an animated Q&A session with the audience.

Over the course of the four-day workshop, girls thinking inside and outside the box, came up with an eclectic range of inspirational ideas, some of which they went on to make films about. They learned about how to structure their ideas for film; moving image composition, and camera techniques before then going out to different locations in Stockwell and Brixton to film their films.
