During the month of October, the whole of TY took part in the Kairos workshop. During the workshop, the Transition Year students were tasked with creating a short video clip that consisted of recreations of our favourite TV shows and various news scenarios. A week prior to the workshop, all of the classes needed to organise a script and format for their short show. In most cases, the students didn't form a full script before the workshop, but everyone had a rough idea of what they wanted to create.
On the day, after arriving to school, the students immediately set off to Maynooth. Upon arriving to the recording studio, everyone had 40 minutes to complete their scripts. While everyone else was putting their finishing touches on their scripts, the Director, Sound Mixer, Visual Editor and Camera Men were taken to the studio and shown how all the equipment worked. Once everyone was up to scratch with what they were doing, the rehearsals of our little shows started. These ran very smoothly and allowed everyone to perfect their performances. In the end, our year managed to create many great short shows, while really enjoying themselves. Please view our shows on the TY website.
