Filmmaking & Music Training March 2019 - May 2020
This project aims at sharing stories about women's daily life and challenges in order to support freedom of expression using different mediums. It will be carried out in phases: the first one is the recruitment of the youth, the next phases are to introduce them to different media forms and basic production techniques (creating synopsis), subsequently the other phases will be educating them and training them into different subjects in video training and human rights. Upon completion of these phases, participants will work on final productions. The topics will be chosen by the youth themselves. The final pieces will be published on social media, platform and by screening in different places. Then, the production will be distributed locally and internationally so the youth’s voices will reach wider audiences. The project will also be documented by Shoruq’s media team to be shared with other young girls and organizations to reach a wider impact.
We want to help media students on their projects and at the same time learn new film skills. Our aim is to help young women grow through informed decision making and expression methods.
