WORLDwrite
Volunteer Filmmakers for a 'History of Freedom' doc needed– Free Training Provided
The charity WORLDwrite is now preparing a major documentary project on the history of freedom in the UK for the year ahead. To make this volunteer made educational film possible the charity is hosting a short Easter holiday package which includes free camera training to get to know the charity's 4K & HD film equipment. This is a hybrid package with several meetings on zoom and one weekend of training and shooting. All the sessions and a simple application form are available at https://www.worldwrite.org.uk/volunteering/ Everyone aged 16+ is welcome and no one is turned away. If developing filmmaking skills or testing your existing skills while making an impact for public benefit is of interest, then this may be for you.

201 Millfields Road
The WORLDwrite Centre, 201 Millfields Road is in Clapton in Hackney, London E5 0AL. It can be a bit difficult to find us as the street numbers make no sense and are probably best ignored! We are RIGHT AT THE BOTTOM OF MILLFIELDS ROAD OPPOSITE OSWALD STREET The 242 Bus does stop right outside our black gate on Millfields Road. We are in a red brick detached building with a power station on one side and former environmental services on the other. There are also a lot of buses which stop at the top of Millfields Road at Clapton pond. From Clapton pond you need to walk all the way to the other end of Millfields road to get to us (about 15mins). The Silverlink train which runs west east also stops not far away at Homerton station or Hackney Central from where you can jump on a 242 bus which will take about 10 mins and drop you outside our centre. These details are not comprehensive so do check online with TFL or Google maps to find the quickest way to get to us from where you are. If you are driving you need to enter the lower half of Millfields Road from Chatsworth Road as the top side is blocked off. There is roadside parking in all streets around us which is free at weekends and we’ll provide you with a voucher on week days.
