Meeting Anna McNamee this week was a learning opportunity. Anna shared insights into the key elements of an award winning documentary, both video and audio.

Successful documentaries require a strong story, compelling characters, access, and respect for the people whose stories are being told.

Suggestions please: I’m looking for a place to take my beloved registered Pets As Therapy dogs Wilby and Foxy, ideally a centre supporting people with brain injury, or I’m open to suggestions…a place around Buckinghamshire or Oxford. Wilby and Foxy give so much…I just want to share this. ❤️‍🩹

On Tuesday, Lorna Collins joined us as a guest presenter during an experimental creative class. Her story, Back on the Horse, and presentation offered many valuable insights, shedding light on mental health issues, abuse, creativity, and how these issues are represented in film.

On Saturday, I had the privilege of meeting this exceptional group. The Chevening orientation in London provided a unique platform to engage with scholars from around the globe who are pursuing their studies across the United Kingdom. This experience is truly life-changing.

Having grew up in one of Zimbabwe’s oldest ghettos, one thing set me apart from others. I had a dream.

Today I had an opportunity to share my story with my class - ‘Telling Real Stories Around the World.’ Thanks to @angelarobson.bsky.social for the opportunity.

I learn, unlearn and relearn
