Eichan Club: Seeking participants for Eichan Open Day

Genre:
  • Art Project ,
  • Others

Anyone can easily create video or film these days. Eichan Club (Film memory ‘champon’ club)is a project for people over 70 who have no experience using smartphones or digital cameras for filming, but who want to challenge themselves to something new or make friends in their community. Members learn about video production from scratch, experiencing, making, and enjoying film. With the added participation of young support members, our aim is to create an easygoing local community for people to enjoy cross-generational activities with a focus on “film,” “memory,” and “champon”(“random mix”).

On the Open Day, there will be scheduled time for participants to join Eichan members on the ground during film-making, as well as a talk session about Eichan Club activities. During the talk session we will be referring to “Su ga deru waakushoppu” (“Workshops to draw out the real you”)(Gakugei Shuppan 2020) co-written and edited by instructor Yoshinobu Tsunoo, in the hope of providing an opportunity for participants to think about what kind of project Eichan Club is, and what kind of communication and community network it could help develop, etc.
