FUN FUN FUN !
After two days of filming, our campaign video is done! The making of the video was influenced by ideas, dedications and professionalism that are the result of mutual empowerment and expertise within the community.
On two different days we met up with different BIWOC*s and filmed as much content as we could. With the exception of one person, nobody present had any acting experience. However, the outcome is still amazing!
During the process the network was not any less of value. Everyone left the filmset with at least one new acquaintance. The atmosphere during the filming represents what BIWOC* Rising stands for – Safe Space, community, empowerment, network. All of the woman* appearing in the video gifted us their time and energy and without them, there would be no campaign. With their skills and creativity, our video makers Mizu Zugai and Thais Veiga were in full control and we could certainly learn a thing or two from them. Rhea Ramjohn, as an experienced podcaster, was our sound designer. Anis Ari was active as our set runner and from time to time, was also seen in front of the camera. The film was directed by Loubna Messaoudi but for a change, she can also be seen in front of the camera.
BIG SHOUT OUT TO THE CAST:
Nguyen Linh Chi, Ebony Smith, Daisy Hunt, Nissrine Messaoudi, Leena Halees, Armeghan Taheri, Hoda El-Sharkawy, sowie Hoangtran Hieuhanh und Ciara Engelhardt
