Last year my production company made a micro-documentary about the history of the Dickens Readings. We made this little three-and-a-half-minute film for love, not money, because we were interested in the Readings and didn’t know about them until we started doing promotional work for a stage play authentically re-enacting Dickens’s Reading of ‘A Christmas Carol.’<br> <br>We think the film has potential for use as an educational resource, particularly in this year, the bicentenary of Dickens’ birth. We would be very happy for it to be used and shown. I thought, as it is a free resource, you might forward the link to any teacher networks/blogs/ resource collections and let them know this film is available for use?<br> <br>The film is up on YouTube now and is free for any audience, online or in public, to watch. We have all the appropriate permissions to show it, including one from Royal Holloway, London for use of the lovely Fildes painting. <br> <br>You are yourselves welcome to make use of the film your teaching/learning or as part of an e-learning resource. If you know of others who would like to make use of it, please feel free to share the link.<br> <br><a href="http://youtu.be/YV-OUWISmRI">http://youtu.be/YV-OUWISmRI</a><br> <br>With kind regards<br> <br>Lucinda Horrocks<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>PS If there is anyone you think I should contact about this, I would be happy to hear from you.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Myriad Pro"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Myriad Pro"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Myriad Pro"'>Lucinda Horrocks<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Myriad Pro"'>Wind & Sky Productions Pty Ltd<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Myriad Pro"'>Melbourne Australia<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Myriad Pro"'>lucinda@windsky.com.au<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Myriad Pro"'>Mobile: 0423 126 697<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Myriad Pro"'>http://www.windsky.com.au<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Myriad Pro"'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Myriad Pro"'>ABN 92 129 450 755<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
