EIGHT YOUNG PEOPLE finished the first Pocket Media Workshop that Tipperary Institute supported this academic term. During the next eight weeks, fifth year students in Templemore will produce a short video clip for public viewing on something they have observed or on an item that they would like to promote. We're limited to using things that fit in pockets (i.e., pencils, markers, paper, mobile phones, earbuds) but we're also able to use a small laptop that fits into my Bihn bag. The first 90-second compilation came after 38 minutes of brainstorming and chatting to a Nokia E90 for a concept discussion. Participants uploaded the video work live to Qik.com (see the Pocketmedia group). The full video gives a better idea than this short paragraph on my blog.
