Brainstorm Productions in town!!

The students will remember the last performance 'Cyberia', these are a very talented, creative and passionate group of people who want to stimulate and teach students through drama.

This year's performance and related activities are called ‘The Hurting Game’ (NOT linked in any way to the novel, film, song or T-shirt of the same name).

The performances (2 sessions, Jnr and then Snr Secondary School students) use drama and follow up discussions to focus students’ attention onto issues of bullying, peer pressure, insecurities.

The overall aim is to challenge students to reject destructive relationships at school and online in favour of caring and supportive relationship strategies. (Yeah, sounds a bit cheesy, but if you’ve seen Brainstorm’s material before you’ll know that their performances and material are relevant, realistic and even a little confronting and challenging).

The Staff  & Executive at TCC consider this performance and the related activities so important for our College community, that there will not be any charge to students and their families.

Please address any inquiries to Mr M Lawson at TCC.

We look forward to their performances next Monday 18 June 2018, with all students requested to wear their College Sports Uniform.

2018 REC Ya Shorts

Calling all film fans!

The 4th annual REC Ya Shorts Youth Film Festival returns this year on the search for the next wave of young regional filmmakers from around the state. The film competition is open to any regional Australians aged 12-25 years, with the deadline to submit all films by September 24. Films must be under 6 minutes, appropriate for general audiences, and creatively include the theme of ‘ESCAPE’ and the signature item of a ‘SIGN’.

There are thousands of dollars in prizes up for grabs, with the finalists’ films selected to screen at the new Nextwave Youth Film Awards for the 2019 Screenwave International Film Festival. The festival will also provide an opportunity for filmmakers from all over Regional NSW to meet with fellow creatives and hear from industry professionals.

This year’s program will also see over 70 in-school filmmaking and mental health workshops come to schools throughout Northern NSW for students interested in learning what it’s all about behind the camera lens.  For more information, visit www.recyashorts.com.au, contact workshop coordinator Saige Browne at saige.browne@screenwave.com.au and or Mrs Grimwood (Visual Arts teacher at TCC).
