Summer project 2023 was a fun, creative, action-packed week of DIY film-making. Led by DYT’s co-director Craig McCulloch, our young people worked in small groups to develop, shoot and edit their own short films, using phones and iPads. The films were a brilliant mix of the weird and wonderful: a murder mystery, a ghost story, a zombie comedy, a spoof Western and a couple of comic sketches. All the films were the proud product of the young people’s imaginations – very much their own stories, told the way they wanted to tell them, with the young people storyboarding, acting, directing and editing. At the end of the week we shared their 1-minute movies with an audience of friends and family, with plenty of popcorn and film posters created by DYT.
