We're a group of pupils from 2 schools in Stockport. Have a look at our photos to the right of this page. We took all these ourselves!

This project took quite a lot of preparation! We had to learn how to use all the equipment. Some of our practise efforts didn't work out too well!

We also learnt how to interview people. We used our teachers as guinea pigs!

You can take a look at some of our first efforts on this page.

We learnt a lot about photgraphy; how to hold the camera and line up shots, how to make sure everything we wanted was in the shot and how to use light and focus to change the mood of the photograph.

You can see some of our photographic training on this page.

We became experts in creating, storyboarding and directing videos during our training sessions. The videos on this page will give you an idea of how we managed this!

We went to Abbeyfield Care Home in Bramhall and Reinbek Care Home in Davenport to try out our new skills.

We really enjoyed meeting the residents there and interviewing them about music, technology and media, and they enjoyed talking to us about their lives and how they listened to music when they were younger. On this page you can see some of our photos and videos from the day.

We think we've produced some great photos, videos and illustrations during the project. Take a look at some of the best ones here.

We showed our work to parents, friends, teachers, governors and residents from Reinbek and Abbeyfield at a presentation evening at school. It was hard preparing what we were going to say.

This was the invitation which we sent to guests. The invites on the right were signed by all of us who worked on the project.
