A double decker bus with a difference visited Bath Spa University last week as part of a RELAYS supported tour of SW Universities. Nine students took part in a one day project to produce two short films about their expectations and feelings about the forthcoming London 2012 Games.
The Mediabus was at the Newton Park campus on Thursday 18 March. The day began with a lively group discussion about London 2012, focusing on how hosting the Games might benefit the UK. The students then split into two filmmaking teams and agreed who would take on the main roles of director, producer, presenter, camera and sound. After an introduction to the equipment and some further planning, the students set off around campus to gather the footage they needed. At 3pm they returned to the bus to upload their footage and edit the films together.

Thanks to everyone who took part in a really fun and productive day! The completed short films will be available to watch on the RELAYS website in the coming weeks and screened at events around the region.
