Another Journey

A LiveWire Studio film funded by First Light

The making of Another Journey took place between 31 May and 19 July 2005.

Another Journey is a film idea based upon discussions held with a group of LiveWire participants, aged between 14-18 years old. The film appeals to a cross-section of society and is aimed at anyone who uses his or her imagination. All those who feel the need to escape from the ‘hum-drum’ of everyday life will relate to the narrative of Another Journey.

The filming took place in Manchester City Centre, however the film represents a universal place. The film portrays several anonymous people going about their daily lives. However, the transition between their normal daily routines is expressed through the use of changes in audio and visual styles.

Everyone has their own way of escaping.

Synopsis

The world is full of people who wish to escape their daily lifestyles but not through running away.

As humans we have found many ways of using music, art and memories to enable us to enter the world of our own individual imaginations. In this short film, red boxes will reveal themselves to be a metaphor for people’s escape routes from the humdrum of their daily lives using various video, photography, animation and sound techniques to create a powerful and moving piece.

Film Festival Success

Since its completion, Another Journey has screened at: exposures UK Student Film Festival, Warrington Film Festival and it will shortly be showing at the London Children's Film Festival.
