Unit 31(Democracy): Whoever controls the media controls the mind

We made another a social action video this time around the theme of democracy. Because of the 2017 UK general election we have designed a short video as part of Ufilms productions in order to make sure young people remember use their voice and vote in the general election. The video is a short piece to camera where we explain the importance of using your vote, as well as this we went around the college and got some vox pops and peoples reactions to the upcoming election with the message being that all people (especially young people) should get out and vote. Myself, Kane, Danniella and Matthew worked on the project. Matthew wrote the script and we all stared in it, as well as this myself and Kane operated the camera and Matthew was on Boom while Danniella directed those on screen. After we record the video messages in our studio we went out into the college to get the vox pops. Later that day I then edited the video and uploaded it straight to our YouTube just in time for the general election the next day. The following day the students were invited to watch the video along with a Q and A with Stockton South Labour candidate DR. Paul Williams. Everyone enjoyed the video and I think it motivate everyone to vote especially those in the audience who would have been first time voters. Here at Ufilms we believe in the British values of democracy and think everyone should take advantage of this great system our ancestors died for by using their vote.
