We wanted
the process to be just as important as the result. Therefore, producing the making-of
was included from the very beginning. Take a look at how the project came
together.
Our equipment before traveling to Kenya.
Printing shop in Mombasa (Field Concepts Enterprises)
45 t-shirts for the reporters
Computer room @ Nice View School
The first computers are connected to the World Wide Web
First day: Preparing t-shirts and youth press cards for the students
And here we go, ready to start!
Our first meeting, introducing ourselves to the students…
…and Felix giving them an encouraging speech
Now everyone is part of the Nice View Reporter team
We start with a workshop on reporter’s work…
…how to take good pictures and how to find good topics to report on
Lots of ideas are collected
First steps in photography: Portraits of each team member
A critical audience discussing the first pictures taken
First team experience, reporting on the Nice View kitchen work…
…and doing first interviews
One has no only to ask questions, but also to record the answers
Already looks quite professional
And all the work has to be transferred to the computer
Second day: Leaving the compound for excursion
