- Compassion Series by Deadbeat
To celebrate @Refugeeweekuk, @deadbeatfilms and @eymensy collaborated with @counterpointsarts, @compasscollect, @waterbearnetwork and @ChooseLove for an intimate film project produced by Deadbeat Impact. We worked with 14 young people who are living within the asylum system, and asked them a simple question: “What compassion means to you?”. Their answers were documented through photography and video, and will be shared throughout the lead up and during the dates of Refugee Week. DOP & Directed by @eymensy Creative directed by @deadbeatboris Produced by @mabes_m & @producertoma Camera Op @deadbeatjack Gaffer @tomsolt Editor @jacobcharleselder Animation/Graphics @florencevb Original composition @toddspeakmansound
