Shorts – some of the classics that always work.

La Belle Fille et La Sorciere ( short 3 mins – a great crowd pleaser and great intro)
Sean the Sheep – Loads of Episodes – ones that worked – ‘The Bull’, ‘Kite’ and ‘Circus’
Ti Sentaniz ( 35 mins – audience favourite as it is in Kreyol – with strong social message)
The Baby by Les Rescapes – Haitian slap stick. This episode the favourite, Park one also good.
Some HKKP videos made by UK kids and Haitian kids.
Magic Gourd – Haitian student film – works well.
Josh Sanquist ( This is a great short video with Kreyol voice over about amputees playing sports)
Red Balloon ( 40 mins – massive crowd pleaser – standing crowds cheering! Unbelievable reaction every time)
We show footage from previous days at camps – kids performing etc, they love this!

Features – All films in French.

Kirikou et La Sorciere – Magical Baby saves village from Sorcerer in Africa – Firm fave, and a great film.
Le Ballon d’Or (Boy from village in Guinea wants to be best footballer in Africa – great adventure)
Kirikou et Les Betes Sauvages (Kirikou 2 – good but less action that first film)
Robin Du Bois – (Robin Hood disney cartoon) – Good one but a lot of talking that loses audience at times.
Princess and the Frog – Disney animation set in New Orleans – lots of Voodoo and action, worked well.

Some flip cam footage of kids performing songs and raps at Pinchinat Camp  in Jacmel.  Our talent shows were so popular – these kids are not shy!

Animations created by the kids from Trinity House street boys home and school in Jacmel.  Taken a while to post them up – but worth the wait!

Film we made with school kids in Leogane.

Here is one of the films we made with ex street boys at Trinity House, Jacmel. Inspired by a film made to take out to Haiti by student’s from Filton College, Bristol, UK.

The young people choose the music! Much to my surprise.

whistle posse!  Its our last night in Haiti, and we’re back in Port-au-Prince, ready to head to the airport tomorrow morning… here are a some favourite memories from the trip…

There’s a popular saying here that Haitians are like sugar – they disappear in the rain.  Our trip’s been at the end of the rainy season so we experienced a few sudden downpours.  But the kids didn’t mind getting a bit wet -  One of our best shows was when we were rained out and decided to put up a makeshift screen in a lean-to… ending up with an explosively excited and very appreciative audience packed into a very small area.

G. hanging out with future pop stars… definitely our best memories are going to be the larger than life characters we met in Hait – Jean Michel, Junior, Tracey, Berlynne, Roosevelt, George and especially the kids  in our audience…  we salute you!

Rappers taking control of the stage.  Probably doing the most performed song of the trip “Benaki”  - which goes “Benaki, Benaki.  Look at me i’ve got money!”  Biggest song in Haiti at the moment.  The crowds loved it everytime, we had from 4 year olds to 15 year olds performing it every talent show.
