BBC Radio Northampton Covers Students’ War Museum Film

Students involved in making a film for the Imperial War Museum have been recorded for a feature on BBC Radio Northampton.

Students involved in making a film for the Imperial War Museum have been recorded for a feature on BBC Radio Northampton.

Broadcaster Martin Borley came along to Corby Business Academy on Thursday (April, 26th) to interview the students about the experience.

He also recorded the team (who are from our Gifted and Talented cohort) editing footage they filmed on a recent trip to the war museum in central London.

The piece will be aired on BBC Radio Northampton in the next couple of weeks.

Mr Borley said: “I was really impressed by the students.  The project has obviously given them a new insight into the horrors of war and the questions they asked resulted in some strong, thought-provoking comments.”

The students have until September to create the film, which will be shown at the famous museum, alongside a film made by the venue’s own staff.

The theme of the film is Building a Truce and students have interviewed family, friends and museum visitors on the subject.
