A London Film Academy production, created by the Earls Court Youth Club.
CHANGE
Song, Story and Development
We came up with the theme of 'change', with which they each designed a scene that shows what change means to them. The team have been working on their storyboards and mood boards to ensure we all have a clear and cohesive vision.

Nuras scene
Nura's scene is all about how her life changed when she moved from Portugal to England this summer, and how she dealt with it.
It is set in a dark and gloomy house. She wants to use lights to tell a visual story by having orange light coming through the doorway she enters to represent Portugal, and blue lights filling her bedroom to represent her sadness upon arriving in London.
