We need your hands!

Shop Talk
1

As part of one our Celebrate Handmade campaign (more details on that coming soon!) we want to put together some little films featuring YOUR hands making and doing what they do. It’s going to be all about why buying handmade matters. Can you help?

What we’re looking for is short video clips of you making your products, either filmed from above, at an angle or however you can do it (tripods and GorillaPods help here). They can be filmed on your phone or camera - and we need a mix of landscape and portrait formats ie vertical and horizontal (for different social channels). They only need to be a couple of seconds long as we’ll knit them all together.

Some stills/photos would be great to have too. If you think that’s something you can do, could you just leave us a quick yes or maybe here - and email your mini movies when they’re ready to us at community@folksy.co.uk.

THANK YOU!!!

Ideally by 4th November so I’ve got time to edit but we can still see if we can use any that come in after that somewhere.

I’ve got quite a few short videos on my facebook page where you can see me making things but I’m not sure if I’ve still got the original videos. If you can copy the URL’s from there, you are more than welcome. I’ve e-mailed you details :slight_smile:
