(Ja\u015bmina W\u00f3jcik and Jakub Wr\u00f3blewski, Poland) <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ja\u015bmina W\u00f3jcik is an artist, activist, film director, and mother. Her films and documentaries often work directly with communities in their process and as their subject matter. Ja\u015bmina\u2019s newest film, King Matt the First<\/em>, is no exception to this. In this film project, Ja\u015bmina\u2019s focus is on giving a voice to children. King Matt the First <\/em>is based on Janusz Korczak\u2019s novel and is made in collaboration with children based on the principles of grassroots education. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In her work with children, Ja\u015bmina employs an ethos and methodology that rejects the primacy of the adult having authority over children. For several years, she has been involved in empathetic education by developing original practices for the creation of children\u2019s artistic expressions. She gives agency and subjectivity to children, treating them as co- creators and inviting them into dialogue. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alongside Ja\u015bmina, we welcome Director of Photography, Jakub Wr\u00f3blewski to ICAF. Jakub Wr\u00f3blewski deals with visual storytelling and immersion projects. During the filming of King Matt the First, <\/em>Jakub\u2019s cinematography style was to react as a fly on the wall, to follow the children in a manner where the continuous presence of the cameraman was invisible to them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Collaboration is important in both of Ja\u015bmina and Jakub\u2019s practices, particularly with other selected adult-artists who have their own practices and perspectives surrounding the notion of giving up adulthood and adapting tools and processes for working with children. In this workshop, Ja\u015bmina and Jakub will not only show sections from the film, but will dive deep into the process of making a movie with children. Jasmina will pay particular attention to exploring tools that give children a voice, for example withdrawing from our own senses of \u201cadulthood\u201d to equalise our positions by playing children\u2019s games and activities, or making sure the presence of the camera person is felt as little as possible by the children. Jakub will present a series of storyboards from the film as the beginning of the framework that transformed during the creative process. <\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
