This is Not a Poem”: A Creative Workshop Blending Poetry and Filmmaking
As part of Go Global Week, we are excited to present a unique in-person creative workshop: “This is Not a Poem”.
Based on the Instituto Cervantes project “This is not a poem, this initiative blends poetry, cinema, and video creation to push the boundaries between these art forms. Through engaging activities and hands-on workshops (poetry ad filmmaking), participants will explore contemporary artistic expressions in an interdisciplinary way.
Programme:
Introduction from Carmen Herrero and a representative of the Instituto Cervantes.
Creative Writing Workshop: Explore poetry with Laura Martin-Cisneros.
Short Film Screening: From the “This is not a poem” project.
Filmmaking Masterclass: Led by Zoe Parker Moon.
Group Activity: Participants will create and screen their own short films.
Join us for this one-of-a-kind experience to inspire your creativity and discover new artistic perspectives!
This project is collaboration with the Instituto Cervantes and the Spanish Consulate in Manchester. The event is part of the Project Vessels of Communication (created by Dr Carmen Herrero).
