Silwood Video Group – Bank Holiday Workshop

Jun 03 2011 Published by adosini under Silwood Video Group

Spectacle’s latest inter-generational film workshop took place at the Silverlock Center on bank holiday Monday and saw children and adults from the surrounding communities come together to learn about and discuss the history and social issues of the local area. Through workshops they were enabled to film one another in an interview style regarding their feelings concerning the estate and how it has changed within their life-times.

Silwood Video Group Update

Mar 30 2011 Published by admin under Silwood Video Group

On Monday we had a successful afternoon filming location shots around the Silwood estate including Regeneration Road and Oldfield Grove. We also filmed shots of the incinerator and the work site near by.

We are coming to the end of this series of inter-generational workshops, so why not get involved and make the most of the last workshops! We will be holding a public screening shortly to show what has been filmed during this series.

SVG: Workshop Update

Mar 10 2011 Published by Ese under Silwood Video Group

The Silwood Video Group workshops continued this week, with two days on the estate. On Monday, due to good weather, we were able to move around on the estate doing location shots and photography, as well as engaging curious residents and talking to them about our activities. Later in the afternoon, we organised an interview shoot with a long-term resident. We also held our weekly screening and workshops at the Silverlock Centre on Tuesday from 6pm-8pm. We discussed old maps of the Silwood and Rotherhithe area brought along by one of the residents, which were photographed for documentation, and held camera and sound operating practice workshops.

SVG: Progress Update

Mar 04 2011 Published by Ese under Silwood Video Group

The weekly Silwood Video Group sessions have been continuing down on the estate and at the Silverlock Centre. We have had some very successful shoots and interviews with local residents, who have helped to document life on the estate by explaining their memories of their time there, how the community has changed, and what advice they would give to younger/ newer residents. The project has so far been well-received by those living on and around the estate, and there is a keen interest being shown in discovering how the camera works, operating sound equipment, interviewing others and listening to each others histories.

As ever, the group would like to encourage new members to join – all are welcome to take part!

Tuesdays, 6.30pm – 8pm

Silwood Video Group Workshop 22nd April

May 18 2009 Published by admin under Active Archive, Silwood Video Group, Spectacle Workshops

At the last Silwood Video Group meeting on April 22nd Silwood residents Doreen Dower and Mike Sparks filmed areas on the Silwood they would like to see developed into recreational spaces for young people. During the evening they canvassed opinion on the estate about what they would like to see changed and encouraged young people to get involved in the resident meetings. Young people were encouraged to come along and give their opinions on how a currently empty plot of land should be used to improve the estate.
