George's Past Experience with Media (Part 1)

I have been an actor for many short films in the past. These films are usually talking about serious subjects such as: Disability hat crime, under age sex, being homeless etc. These films usually last for 5-15 minutes. These films are provided through a series of charity movements such as Medway Youth Trust and Physical Folk. However the film that, I thought, I was the most successful in was my latest, Hidden Consequences, which only came out to the public a few days ago on 18.11.2015.




The aim of Hidden Consequences is to raise awareness to young people about disability hate crime this film is to be tour around the schools of Strood, Chatham, Gillingham, Rainham and Rochester. The reason why this film was created was because over the past decade, the Kent police force have seen an increase in the amount of young people committing hate crime in all shapes and forms. So therefore several charity organisations, Kent police and Medway Hospital came together to form the jigsaw project and starting recruiting young to write a script for the new film, act in the film and edit the film. Sadly I wasn’t asked to join the script writing team or the editing team but I was asked to act and help out on set with recording sound, camera work etc. We also had a premiere at the Britannia Theatre, In Dickens World Chatham.
