Being Small
Introduction
Being Small
Being Small was made by a group of children at St Mary The Virgin C.W Primary School in Butetown in Cardiff, working with Valley and Vale Community Arts.
This project used dance, music and film to encourage the children to explore what it feels like being small and expressing their feelings through creativity. The children wrote poetry, thought about the differences between being small and tall, looked at the flowers and butterflies in the park, made music and sang about what being small meant to them. At the end of the project the group performed their dance piece at the school as a multi-media performance with the film projected onto the dancers.
Supported by The Lottery through the UK Film Council' First Light Initiative.
