☀️ Day 3️⃣: FilmLab Continued...

We are already halfway through our first week of camp. It is crazy how time flies. Today was our final all-day of workshops related to the FilmLab project. Beginning tomorrow we will begin going on regular trips, with our first trip being to Birzeit🚶‍♂️🚶‍♀️. We will have other workshops and chances for the different groups to work on their projects. In the morning the campers reflected in their groups on the film they saw yesterday 🎥. They then played a bunch of community building games and did a brainstorm session about their film idea(s) including beginning their initial planning for the film📝. Their first workshop of the day was about sound and how sound can be used to deliver ideas and themes in a film 🎵. After that we had lunch, some campers chose mlukheye🍲 while others chose to have a carrot and pea stew🍲. After lunch, campers got to learn about the history and development of the Palestinian music scenes from the British Mandate all the way to today’s pop, rap, and hip hop scene in Palestine🎶. This session was led by Palestinian artist and star Ibrahim Nijem of the Ens O Jam )الانس و الجام( group. Afterwards, we had our brief afternoon break and returned for our evening session where had a final workshop that further detailed the film making process🎬.
