History

YEAR 2010

Katowice European Capital of Culture, August 2010




"London Diverse and Lively"
A project targeting young Czechs who settled down in London and are in the process of developing new identities. This project gives them an opportunity to reflect and share their experience by using various formats (collage, photos, blogs, creating website, answering questionnaires). Their work is now used as material for creating a video documentary and a short motivational animation. This part is also done by two young digital artists. During the project, we facilitated participant's meetings. The final public one, with the video documentary projection and following debate will be held in Riverside Studios in London, in November 2010.

"Green & Healthy. Try and share"
A multilateral youth exchange hosted by DYNAMA in June 2010. The activities programme included creating a photo brochure which would motivate young people to change their behaviour in favour of healthier and more sustainable lifestyle. To get attractive and matching contributions for the photo brochure, all participants were involved and space was ensured for quality work. The main achievement was finding and agreeing on clear ways to communicate the message by visuals mainly, accompanied by minimum of text. The special feature was that the person responsible for digital graphic work is colour blind, so he needed wide support of all contributors. The cover of the brochure is now being produced and the completion of the photo brochure is expected in October 2010.

"Hello Europe, Hello Brno"
A one day public event bringing together young people being involved in a project beneficial for community and other community representatives including municipality representatives. DYNAMA supported young teams by producing visual presentations of their work so that the project's theme, message and benefits for community would be clear and concise. Five youth projects were successfully presented and the impact on public was significant. The visual formats included animation, video documentary, sound jingle (a project of the blind) and photo comics.

Jingle "Hrej si" (play): This jingle captures sounds of a place in Brno where citizens like coming to play games in the summer and skate in the winter. The jingle has served the project group to promote games of seeing and blind young people in the open air, on a public place (a park, street etc.). The jingle accompanied electronic invitation for such events. Clik here to hear the Jingle

Leaflet "Legislative Theatre towards the Change": This photo story shows a strategic moment in the life of Magda, a girl who has left a childrens' home after being brought up there and who starts her independent life. The leaflet has served the project group to inform stakeholders about their project and to build up a network of children's homes where the project group could come and work with clients with the aim to discuss challenges and responsibilities of independent life.

DVD "Volnym padem" (Free Falling): This documentary explains the method of Theatre Forum and how it is used in work with youngsters. The parts showing direct work with target groups give you the insight into the non formal working environment and the topics Theatre Forum can open, such as bullying, street fights etc. The documentary has served the project group to explain the working method and to find support for development of their project within the community. The project was realised in the period of 2008-2009.

DVD "Naboso" (Bare Feet): This short animation contrasts the feelings of living in the world full of cars, polluted air, traffic noise etc. with pure and peaceful natural environment. The final slogan introduces the term soft travelling to motivate the viewer to explore its concept. The animation has served the project group to motivate young people to think of transport alternatives and sustainability. The animation has been used to open workshops.
