Wildlife Trust Film Now Online
Monday 1st March
A short film made about Nottinghamshire Wildlife Trust, which was aired on television recently, is now available to watch online. The film was shown as part of the Community Channel’s ‘Untold Stories’ series, introduced by Sir Trevor McDonald. It was produced by a professional filmmaker and features footage from the Wildlife Trust’s sites including popular local visitor attraction Attenborough Nature Reserve.
The ‘Untold Stories’ series is part of Volunteer Films, a scheme in which small charities are given the opportunity to work with volunteers in the TV and Video production industry to produce a short film about their work at an affordable price. Now in its fifth year, the project has supported over 100 small not-for-profit organisations and has seen the equivalent of £1m donated in time and resources from the media industry.
Communications and Marketing Manager Erin McDaid said: “We are extremely pleased with the film, which we hope will help to raise awareness and support for our vital work for wildlife across the county. Being involved in this scheme has given us the chance to get our message across to potential supporters in a new and effective way.”
The film, produced by local filmmaker Ali McElhoney of ASBO Productions, was broadcast on the Community Channel which can be viewed on Sky 539, Virgin 233 and Freeview 87, and is now available to watch on the Community Channel website.
