The Real Cabaret
Interesting BBC 4 Documentary about the real story behind the film Cabaret and what life was like in Berlin in the 1930's before the Nazi's got into power.

The Editing Process
weeks since the trip I've been busy doing follow up interviews and
researching suitable music and archive images.
Structurally, I've broken the film down into 18 sections that I can
knit together once all complete. We managed to obtain some archive
footage filmed by the Russians at the liberation of Auschwitz - we
have the rights to use 30 seconds in the film.
Also have the rights to use a few seconds from a police recruitment
video from 1974 to help illustrate how far we've come in terms of
equality.
Still some work to do. We've also been researching relevant news
headlines to feature at the end.
Not long now though until the first screening so onwards and upwards!

Post Trip Interviews
This week I've spoken to Jess, Emily, Andrew, Jeanette and David. On Wednesday we had a group feedback session with lots of cake and pop. It's been great to catch up with everyone again, finding out what they've been doing.
I've been working on the structure for the documentary film based on the footage we have the the various messages and themes we want to put across. With specialist advice from Paul Muddle, we started looking at some of the additional footage we need for the education pack. It's all coming together.
