Reel Change Film
Reel Change was a hugely successful project of Tower Hamlets Summer University in 2008. Over 100 young people from across London took part and joined in getting the message across.

We won!
'Hear Me Out' won the Best Documentary Film category at the 2008 Cinemagic Young Filmmaker Competition, part of the Cinemagic Film Festival in Belfast!
We set up a progression route for our Reel Change students with Charge TV. Seven young people took part in a competition to win the chance to present a show on Charge TV, the youth arm of Community Channel. The seven were given free reign to choose a national news story and asked to make a short location report canvassing local opinion on it.
Two winners were chosen – one by the Charge Producer, and one by the Charge Viewers who had the opportunity to vote on the Community Channel website. We are delighted to announce that Naa and Kavita won the presenter search and that you can now see them co-host the special New Year's Eve episode on the Charge TV website.
