Launch Film for Hoxton A.M.
Without even a hint of super-injunctions, Hoxton A.M. hit the streets on Saturday 30th April. Aided by support from writing mentors, our intrepid team of young journalists sallied forth into the market to take the news to the people. As well as selling the paper, the Newsbreakers team decorated our first market stall and designed their own sandwich boards to advertise their wares.
The video here shows the results of their efforts, as well as the reaction of the people they met. It was a tremendous effort by all concerned and at last count over 400 copies of the paper have been sold. Huge thanks go to everyone who was involved in the project, and to director Octavia Hartland and producer Jasbir Saund – watch this space for more journalistic endeavours.
