After the success of MaD Week in the last few years, The Film/Media Department will again team up with professional filmmakers to produce a short film on set at South Island School. The script will be developed and directed by Mr Williamson. Our drama will also attempt to raise awareness about a critical social issue so that our final product will truly Make a Difference!

This is your chance to shadow in the making of a film. You can choose to work in one of the following roles:

Lighting/Cinematography
Editing, Special Effects
Sound Design/Sound Composition
Talent (The Cast)
Continuity, Costume Design, Make-Up

We are also looking for talented drama students to participate as part of the cast and intend to hold auditions closer to MaD Week 2025. This five-day experience caters for Y10 Media students and Y9 & Y8 students interested in the medium of film or post-production techniques using Adobe Premiere Pro/Final Cut Pro, After Effects, etc.
