Glasgow Lives: James, 29, West End, SCIAF Filmmaker
Last month’s premiere of Rugby for Peace was a real highlight of my career. After a year writing, editing, and producing the documentary for SCIAF, seeing it on the big screen left me with a lump in my throat - and an even greater desire to continue making films that provide a platform to people whose voices need to be listened to the most.
With this content, we could have created a powerful fundraising video for social media to show the problem, demonstrate our work, and ask for support. But I felt this was an opportunity to be more creative and dive deeper into Colombian life. With SCIAF’s support, I commissioned a local Producer to create a punchy soundtrack and I edited and graded the picture, so it looked like something you’d find on Netflix - not social media.
BBC Social began working with me for their online platform – everything from spoof news reports to interviews, to films about the outdoors and sustainable farming. This led to the opportunity to produce a 15-minute film for BBC2’s ‘The Adventure Show’ where I attempted to reach the most remote point in Scotland on the shortest day of the year.
