Jubilee Audio-Visual Project

As part of this year’s Village Festival we would like to produce an audio-visual project on the theme of “60 Years in Witchford”. The intention will be to collate imagery and spoken word portraying village life over the last 60 years. In particular we would like:

Village Photographs:

Displaying past and present scenes, everyday life, people, places and memories. These might be historical photos, or ones you may want to take specifically for the display, portraits, events etc.

Audio-Histories:

We will be looking for volunteers to record a few words about the village. These may be memories, anecdotes, why you moved to the village etc. Whether your family has been here for generations or whether you have just moved into the village, we’d love to hear from you. We will then arrange to meet up and record your thoughts.

We will digitise the photographs and project them as part of a presentation on to a large screen, accompanied by the audio-history soundtrack.
