Very thankful for the opportunity to discuss on TM Hub (with @David HarrisProducer Director PD,@SarahReed PD, @KiranSira AP,@NicolaBitton Editor,@AndrewProffitt PC) the making of ‘The School That Tried To End Racism.’
The RTS nominated series followed a pioneering British school as it helps its students uncover and eradicate hidden racial biases. Combining drama, humour and authenticity the series explored a number of difficult topics thanks to the brave, kind and thoughtful children who took part. #rtsawardsnominees

Rachel’s perseverance was rewarded when she talked to Stephen Hume, the headteacher at Glenthorne High School, who unlike many schools was enthusiastic and not scared off by the idea at all.
There has been a trend in recent years to cover content like this with a fix rig, however we decided that we needed to create a better sense of intimacy and maintain the ability to follow the kids around their environment at school and at home. Therefore decided to shoot handheld on FS7s, which was covered by our brilliant supporting filming team @EmmanuelAyettey , @SarahReed
For visual impact @RachelDupuy had another brilliant idea. She showed me a pantone chart, which demonstrated how we could created backgrounds for every student to reflect their individual skin-tones. To achieve this all the students were filmed against a greenscreen and the colour was changed in post-production.
