Here is a taster for a 30 minute doc about Junior Up Helly’aa which Burntcandle is producing with a group of media students from the Shetland Bridges project. Bridges is for young people between 15 and 19 who, for whatever reason have found it hard to get on at school, to help get them get into full time work or further education. 6 students from Bridges worked with me on this project, with 3 camera teams following the junior Jarl, Sam Maver throughout the weeks before the last tuesday in January, and of course the big day itself. The documentary will be finished in February and will be shown at various festivals throughout the UK.
