BBC Blast Colchester
Matt and Hal were delighted to be invited on to the BBC Blast Truck at its last stop in Colchester for 2009. For two days our team ran an internet broadcasting project working with learners to make their own internet television production. During the workshop learners were taught about TV production, camera work, script writing, interviewing and presenting. At the end of the two day workshop the learners presented their live workshop to a live audience within Colchester’s Charter Hall.
The BBC Blast truck is familiar ground for Matt and Hal who in 2006 worked on the truck at every UK location, in 2008 redesigned the vehicles and continue to remain as advisors to the BBC on creativity in learning.

Saffron Walden County High School Summer School 2009
Since 2009 our tean have helped plan, prepare and run the annual Saffron Walden County High School Summer School in association with partner Primary Schools.
This year our plan was much bigger, on 10 July our team arrived to teach the learners about broadcast televison. On 31 July we were back to practice a live performance in Saffron Walden Screen, and on 16 November we were back at the school for the live Internet TV production, which was managed entirely by the learners involved in the project and followed a BBC Question Time format.
