Movie Making

This is a fun, highly interactive programme where every single person can get involved, regardless of their age, level of fitness or physical abilities.

Each team works together to write a script, produce, direct and act in the "Movie" using limited resources. Teams are given a "Movie Making Kit" which contains an assortment of materials, props and 'goodies'. Everyone has to tap into both their creative and practical abilities as they start to produce their movie.

Movie Making provides excellent value for money because not only does it provide an afternoon of teambuilding but a guaranteed evening of fun. Awards can be arranged and given with due ceremony for the various categories, often recognising and celebrating some hidden talents. Movie Making can be easily adapted to meet your various requirements and options include producing a "mini movie" with a given title, an advertisement for an existing or future product, a news broadcast or a weather forecast.
