Orange City Council is hosting the very successful touring short film educational program “In the Bin” from November 8-10.
“In the Bin” offers participants aged 15-25 years the opportunity to gain hands on experience while creating their own short film.
Over the duration of three days, four teams are supplied with cameras and editing systems to create their masterpieces depicting elements of the community in a five minute film.
“In the Bin” festival director Jed Cahill said the aim was to give the community the highest standard of short film festival in Australia and the world.
“We provide all equipment needed, and tour instructors are always around to help when needed. We believe in letting the students make all the creative decisions in the making of their films.”
The community will have the opportunity to review the films during an afternoon presentation at the Orange Botanic Gardens.
This program was made possible through the support of Orange City Council
Workshop numbers are strictly limited. Four groups are formed and each group will get the opportunity to create their own short film. The participants will shoot the film as a team with equal participation and all will hold the credit of Director.
The festival teaches the participants the ability of working and thinking as a group in the process of creating their own short film. In the Bin will assist in developing the ideas and planning of the shoot. Group building exercises will also be held as an opening activity to the program.
