In preparation for the showcase, c21’s Film Maker will host a series of green screen sessions, where members of the public are invited to come along and record a short film piece to be used in the exhibition.
The sessions will take place as the follows:
Tower Centre, Ballymena, December 5 and 6, 11am to 5pm;
Larne, Main Street, December 7, 10am to 4pm and December 8, 12pm to 7pm;
DeCourcy Centre, Carrick, December 9 and 10, 10am to 4pm
The Mayor of Mid and East Antrim, Alderman Noel Williams, said: “These videos will light up our streets and showcase the wonderful people of our borough. We hope to involve as many people as possible in this project and I would urge you all to come along to one of our pop-up shops this December to find out more.”
