The Ancient Mariner Film
A short film inspired by Coleridge’s ballad The Rime of the Ancient Mariner made with a whole range of community groups as we cycled across Somerset last september.
Leukemia Weekends 1989 – present
Twice a year children in treatment from the Royal Devon & Exeter & Plymouth Derriford Hospitals, along with siblings & other family members make the journey to remote North Devon for a wild weekend of creativity & adventure provided by Wolf + Water.
“The VP Team” - 2003
During 2003 we were invited by a group of adults with learning difficulties to come & help them make a video about the government’s “Valuing People” white paper, which is the document which sets out how people with learning difficulties should be treated by the services that serve them & society in general.
Part of Us Forever – 2003
An hour long film made with teenagers who have or have had cancer & leukemia & who wanted to create a film about their experiences that might help other young people in a similar position. Covering all aspects of the illness, from diagnosis, through treatment, through the effects on family & personal lives & through to recovery…or sometimes death - & reflecting on how the experience has changed them profoundly.
"Home Ground" – a video & experiential program about healthy relationships
When Wolf + Water were commissioned by the Devon Domestic Violence Joint Services Taskforce to create a video & education pack on domestic violence & healthy relationships for 8 – 10 year olds, we knew exactly who we wanted to work with. Back in 2002 we ran the “Romeo & Juliet Project” looking at issues of inter personal conflict with young people from Bradley Rowe School on the Burnt House Lane estate in Exeter…& we wanted to go back & do some more…!
running with the pack
Here are links to three clips from our film, “Running with the Pack”, which documents one of our weekend drama workshops for children with life-threatening illnesses.
Mind Your Head
A weekly Arts & video magazine project based at North Devon District Hospital.
“Motorized Wheelchair Men” – Truro – 2004
A collaboration with Effervescence Theatre, this project worked with 4 teenage lads from Treliske Hospital to create a film on their experiences of having Muscular Dysthrophy, including issues spanning bullying, stairs, discrimination & people who don’t have disabilities using disabled parking spaces…
"Macbeth"
(1998 - Highbridge House CRU and Great Torrington School)
Macbeth was one of Wolf + Water’s biggest ever projects to produce, a full length 16mm film adaptation of Shakespeare’s “Scottish Play” made in Devon without the aid of kilts.
The E Files
(South Molton North Devon, 1995)
a twelve week series of sessions working with a youth group to create a drugs education video for the Youth Service & Health Education Authority. Using drama, the group explored the pluses & minuses of drug use & abuse (both illegal & legal substances), in order to take the informed debate that they had as part of this project on to a wider youth audience as part of a peer education programme.
“Wolf + Water developed a trusting relationship with the young people…the comments & the enthusiasm showed that the group loved the project”
