Profile Information

Arts Forms I'm Interested in:
Drama, Music, Multi-Media, Video
About Me:
Hi8us South is an award winning participatory media production company with the following aims:

• To reach young people at risk of social exclusion to enable them to articulate their experiences;
• To enable young people to use the collaborative experience of creating media as a catalyst for change in their own lives and in their communities;
• To create ground-breaking high quality film & new media through a collaboration between media professionals and non-professional participants.

We work collaboratively with young people and partner organisations such as schools, colleges, youth services and other arts & media organisations, to truly reflect young people's needs and give them a voice.
Contact me if you're looking for:
Project delivery services, Website design, Issue based drama, Non-issue based drama, Accredited education services, Non-accredited education services, Practitioner training, Technical services, Design services, Video/film making services
More details about the services I/my company offer:
We are not a training company in the formal sense, but recognise the role that equipping young people with the skills to make high quality media can play in increasing their self esteem, resilience and social and emotional skills. Because, for these reasons, we place an emphasis on high production values, our participants have the opportunity and are supported, if they choose, to seek professional employment within the creative media industries, which many succeed in doing. Our networks and partnerships which include being lead partner in the Goldsmiths Skillset Academy and a board member of the Media Training Alliance facilitate this process.
Sectors that I/my company work in:
Community arts, Schools, Young offender institutions, Refugee communities, Young people at risk, Ethnic communities, Mainstream arts

About this Website:
The first broadband channel to be managed, produced, directed and crewed by a team of at risk, largely BME, young people. The channel featured current, credible popular music talent and issue based content including interviews with key political figures and young peoples commentary. The youth producers developed skills in filming, editing, mixing, camera and sound recording and web design, leading to external commissions at the end of the project. 13 of the participants progressed to employment or industry related training in further and higher education. 100 young people worked with the project as performers, presenters and interviewees. 300 peers, families and friends attended live shows.

CCE National Social Inclusion commission

We're really pleased to have been awarded the CCE "Media Bursaries" commission this week. CCE [Creativity Culture & Education] is the UK government body charged with increasing and enhancing access to creative opportunities for young people in and out of school. They want to give 18 young people across England the opportunity to make short films that express their perspective on challenging and complex global issues, such as violent extremism, identity, and freedom of expression in the media… Continue

Awards more awards

We at Hi8us don't pretend to above enthusiastically receiving awards and the young people we work with certainly don't either. It's coming up to the anniversary of us winning the BAFTA for L8R and a couple of less famous, but equally important have come in one week after another.

What is SANe?

Think of SANe as a meta- network, an adhocracy, for people, organisations and other networks that are working in the field of arts and social action. The only requirement for joining SANe is that you have an interest in the arts as a means for raising awareness: a way of groping towards a social mind.

SANe is supported by the Syd Barrett Fund which, amongst other things, is working towards the creation of the Syd Barrett Social Arts Centre in Cambridge, UK. More...

Our next fundraising event will be a walk from London to Cambridge. Want to come along? Find out more...

Since Jan 19th 2009

SANe, the Social Arts Network, exists to facilitate communication between people who are interested in the development of socially inclusive arts practice, services, exhibitions and productions. The network is managed by

Escape Artists but it is open to everyone. Please feel free to upload your photos, videos, music and research papers, or to start your own forum or group.

Games for Actors and Non-Actors by Augusto Boal

It's a good idea to put your photos into an album as soon as you upload them; it makes them easier to find and gives them a context. And we'd be grateful if everyone could add either a picture of themselves or a company logo to their profile. SANe Books

Visit the SANe bookstore for a great range of books on socially inclusive arts. A percentage of any book sale made through SANe is donated to Escape Artists (UK registered charity no. 1086004) and helps to pay for the costs of managing this network.

Recommend books that you think other SANe members might be interested in.
