Central South Zone 1

Hello Students and Supervising Teachers/Parents of Central South Zone:

My team and I are looking forward to the time we'll be spending on developing your short films. It's going to be an exciting time, but also a time of dedication to creativity.

I will be using this blog as my primary means of sharing information with you, so please check in from time to time over the course of the festival training sessions and supervision.

You can leave questions here for me, Roger Edwards-Barran, your trainer for Central South Zone. Simply post a comment to this blog, which I will reply to. Remember to identify yourself, your school and zone when commenting, so that you can be easily identified.

If it becomes necessary that any student needs to contact me directly, please do so through your supervising teacher.

We have a lot of work ahead of us, but it will be time well spent, work well done. At the end you'll be able to display a short film you'll be proud of. So, good luck and welcome to the Trinidad and Tobago Secondary Schools Short Film Festival 2010!
