Whether it's stewarding at a festival, writing for a magazine, or producing works of art, volunteering for creative projects is bound to get those juices flowing.

The Kids Are Revolting!

For this session I typed up the characters and manifesto points we then voted on the manifesto which looks like follows:

If young people ruled the world I would...

CREATE A DROP IN SCHOOL SYSTEM

MAKE ALL ADULTS TAKE PUBLIC TRANSPORT (TO HELP STOP DESTROYING THE PLANET)

CREATE A WIDER CHOICE IN ALL SCHOOL CANTEENS

LET MUSIC BE ALLOWED ON BUSES

MAKE YOUNG PEOPLE'S VOICES HEARD

Clearly some are more political and pertinent than others... but they should all make entertaining and informative vignettes.

After the young people had left we worked a bit later (til gone 9pm!) on finalising the script, writing a storyboard and making t-shirts emblazoned with the slogan created by the young people - 'Freedom not Boredom! We came up with some different names for the film. One I formulated was, 'The Kids are Revolting!' bit of a pun in there! This Saturday we begin the filming at the Tower... exciting stuff...
