Call for trainer in video filming and editing

Data: 21/09/2011

The International Falcon Movement - Socialist Education International (www.ifm-sei.org) is looking for a trainer and facilitator experienced in filming and editing for our exciting large-scale global project "Volunteering against Poverty"(VAP).

The project:
The aim of "Volunteering against Poverty" is to develop a strong network of young volunteers from Africa, Asia, Europe and Latin America to raise awareness on youth poverty and the struggle for decent work by producing a thought-provoking and inspiring documentary.

24 young volunteers will be trained in peer education and documentary-making to facilitate local video projects. The local volunteers will interview their peers on their fears and hopes regarding their working life, talk to experts, employers and decision-makers and develop ideas to fight youth poverty and exploitation. The local volunteers themselves will be young people with fewer opportunities. Their active participation in this project will equip them with a set of attitudes, skills and knowledge that will support them in their future lives.


Activities and venues (exact dates to be agreed)

1) Preparation meeting, Brussels, Belgium (December 2011, 3 days)

During this meeting the team will get to know each other and plan the project implementation in detail, particularly the programme blocks for the training course in Medan

2) Training course in Medan, Indonesia (March 2012, 7 days plus 2 day prep meeting.)

The participants will exchange experience of volunteering, youth poverty and unemployment. They will also be trained in peer education, filming and editing techniques.

3) Local video projects in all communities involved

4) Production meeting, Barcelona, Spain (August 2012, 7 days)

The production meeting will bring together the participants to work on the film and educational resources.

5) Public screening and evaluation meeting, Brussels, Belgium (November 2012,3 days)

A celebration of the project and its successes

6) Dissemination phase in all communities involved


Expected Results

- High quality documentary on youth poverty and decent work;

- Activity and information pack for educational purposes to accompany the documentary;
- 12 local volunteering projects to produce the documentary and raise awareness on youth poverty;
- Young people equipped with new competencies and motivated to volunteer for youth organisations.

We are looking for a young person to join the educational team as our documentary film expert. The rest of the team are non-formal educators without much filming experience, so we would like to strengthen our team with someone who has experience of filming, editing and producing films but also of supporting young people to develop ideas and produce a film themselves.


The film & editing trainer should be:

- Experienced in training and facilitating in youth organisations;
- Experienced in filming and editing;
- Fluent in English other languages are an asset;
- Committed to IFM-SEI is aims and principles;
- Committed to take part in all meetings, to support the participants; between the meetings and to stay in regular contact with the educational team;
