YESS PROJECT FOR STORYTELLING AND FILMMAKING
This project, in partnership with UNICEF, aims to empower approximately 250 students from 11 municipalities through storytelling, photography, and cinematography.
By providing targeted training and hands-on experience, we will develop ten compelling human interest stories, create a short documentary showcasing the journey of the YESS Project. A two-day training will focus on storytelling, photography, and cinematography, with 25 students participating from each municipality.
Continuous support from the DokuFest team, including post-production training, will ensure that students can refine their stories through an iterative feedback process, resulting in high-quality productions.
Additionally, DokuFest will produce a documentary that captures the entire journey of the YESS Project, featuring interviews and behind-the-scenes footage to highlight the initiative's impact and celebrate the students' creativity. This documentary will be showcased during a Talent Day at DokuFest, recognizing the hard work of the participants.
The overall implementation period for the project spans from October 2024 to November 2025, with specific timelines for various activities ensuring a structured and effective approach to achieving our goals.
"At the heart of social challenges and global changes, art and education unite to illuminate the path towards mutual understanding and cooperation. Through films and educational programs, young people are empowered to build a shared future in harmony and peace."
