48 Hours
Took part in a 48 hour film challenge the other week but the guy doing the editing didn't finish it in time so we missed the deadline.
I tweaked it a little and put it on Youtube (added Kevin Macleod music and a few extra cuts - but it is still rough and ready!)
Anyway, here it is. It is what it is - we didn't have great equipment or any external ( Read more... ) -

Hysteria and Xenophobia
This story about immigration and benefits on the BBC makes me mad, because it is rabble rousing and does not give the full facts.
