Directed by film teacher Richard Paris Wilson, with a selection of my best students (under-16’s from my summer media club) and a couple of industry professional friends, on a shoestring budget over a lovely weekend in south London.
 
This was a Genero competition entry, and was nominated for best video of 2012.
 
Upon hearing the song, the idea of making it with children, seemed just as important as having children star in it. Most of the crew are under 16.

 

Written and produced for EDWARD SHARPE and the MAGNETIC ZEROS, and the magnificent song ‘CHILD’.
