"Just so I know" - film for Looked After young people
A short film made by young people who are Looked After in York, about what it is like and what you can expect to happen if you become Looked After. Made for primary school aged children, this fun and accessible film clearly explains the care system and what they should expect and demand from it and the adults around them. It was an absolute joy to work on, and we took the creative decision to make the entire piece 'old school' - no digital post or graphics for a real hand-crafted feel. See if you can spot the lesson about swingball!!
