I just posted a music video here ... https://capebreton.lokol.me/allan-the-aardvark-music-video ... which was produced by a local group of kids and their ukulele teacher. They were able to write, shoot, produce, and release to the public their work. LOVE this ability!
This music group is headed up by Suzanne Doane, a music teacher in Sydney. Her father is Chalmers Doane, who was instrumental in bringing ukulele instruction to kids across Canada in the 1970s.
Contrast their (our) ability with this 12 min documentary filmed by the National Film Board of Canada in Halifax.
I couldn't stop watching this one!
"This short documentary takes a frank look at the difficulty of filmmaking before the digital era, when takes were precious and few. It’s pure havoc on a pier in the Halifax dockyards as a National Film Board crew attempts to film 1000 Halifax school children playing 'I Believe in Music' on their ukuleles. The crew's efforts are confounded by two destroyers, one helicopter, several tugboats, bullhorns, walkie-talkies, and a rather critical lack of bathroom facilities."
