For three days, from Tuesday, 31st January to Thursday, 2nd February, the TY students were a hive of creativity in Song School writing songs, making videos of the songs and a separate film trailer. The class was split into four groups. Some of the TY students recount their experiences. (Click on thumbnails to open an enlarged version of image.)
"We created our own songs. We recorded them and then filmed them altogether as a group. It was entertaining." Sarah Cunningham
"We made a song and we made a music video. I helped film the music video. I learned to be steady with the camera. The best thing was making songs and looking at how the music was created." Stephen Fehily
"Editing was excellent. It was fun the way you can change things. The video made me laugh the most." Liam Hennessy
"It was ok. It was fun making the music videos and the film because it was easier. Making the songs was more difficult because people had different artistic ideas." Elan Bondi
"It was an interesting experience. My group made a hip-hop song. We also got to make a music video - that took a day to get together. We had to write a song, make a music video and make a film trailer." Michael Lawlor"
