Zen and the Art of Sandcastles

Sometimes the art is letting go.

This is a short photofilm produced on one of our three-day training courses.

The finished result is a powerful, evocative and warm meditation on loss and a reminder to all of us that sometimes the real art is in letting go. We hope it shows what magic can happen through training, as well as the undoubted talents of our trainees.

We threw our two students right in at the deep end, unleashing them on the British seaside town of Weston super Mare. We gave them one day to sniff out a story, collect the photographs and audio, and another day to rough edit the material.
 

“After a wander around the town centre to weigh up subject potential, we agreed a plan of action and with the help of Benjamin and David each did our thing. After just a few hours we returned home with a huge sense of achievement and the raw material for this finished piece.” Ciara Leeming
