"With so many young people and so much creative ambition on board, RED promises to be a prolific late-night finale to mFEST."

The Kinetic Effect
Posted Wed 12/5/10 by Andrew Cumming
Daniel, one of our young leaders and stars of our latest film. No doubt this blog will embarrass the life out of him.
Hello all. I'm just popping up from the media basement to let you know that our latest film 'The Kinetic Effect' is available to view now. It is an extra special film because it deals specifically with the community-driven aspect of our work and it's all about... Kinetic.
We were commissioned by The Playfield Institute in Cupar to make a short film focussing on the work we do with young people, and how it relates to and improves their personal and mental well being. The film was a real Kinetic family effort, featuring interviews with young people, staff - past and present - and original music from our design director Paul!
