Koori Youth Yarn Up

ICE is running a free four-day intensive filmmaking course for Koori young people that live, work or study in Western Sydney. The course will train young people from Koori backgrounds in script writing, filmmaking, editing, digital photography and online film preparation.

At the end of the course, all participants will have produced their own ‘digital story’ and be ready to share it with the world. Register now as space is limited and bookings are essential.

DETAILS

Koori Youth Yarn Up will run over two weekends in August (8 – 9, and 15 – 16) at Penrith City Library from 10am – 4pm.
