Call for Tender: Show Racism the Red Card - Education Video
Call for Tender: Show Racism the Red Card - Education Video
Show Racism The Red Card is an educational programme implemented by the Immigrant Council of Ireland. Part of our education resources involves the production of a film. We use videos produced in 2017 and 2019 in the current education activities.
We want to produce a new updated film in the following formats:
- Long version video, that schools and other organisations can use for educational activities (length: 12-14 minutes)
- A series of short videos for SRTRC workshops explain three of the core topics below (length: 3-4 minutes each)
- Short, dynamic video serving campaign purposes, social media, and advertising Wear Red Day (length: 1-2 minutes)
The film would feature interviews with sports personalities, young people, and other people of interest speaking on the topic of racism. The video aims to be an educational feature and be the basis for discussing and exploring the subject of racism. The target audience is young people, so the video should be engaging and exciting. The video should explore topics of racism, how it manifests, and what its impact is. It should look at the topic of racism from the perspective who experiences, e.g. colour, nationality, religion, etc and conclude with a feature on the benefits of integration.
Themes/ Sections:
- What is racism, and who experiences it
- A changing Ireland- a nation of emigration to a national of immigration
- How does racism happen and its impact
- How to respond
- Benefits of integration
For the three shorter videos they would be under the themes of:
- What is racism, and who experiences it
- How does racism happen and its impact
- Diversity and benefits of integration
The shorter form videos are intended to be on topics that are in the longer video also, but with some further detail.
Who will be filmed, what will be included and where will this take place?
Immigrant Council of Ireland will identify who we would like to interview and will liaise with the production company to complete filming at locations across Ireland. Who to feature: Male/ Female sports personalities, young people, migrants & refugees
The filming aspect of the video would be:
- Interviews with players and personalities from different sports (football, GAA, rugby, athletics)
- Scenic footage showing a changing Ireland, maybe vox pop
- Interviews with young people on their experiences of racism, migrants and their experience of moving from their country of origin to Ireland
- Film footage with the presenter doing link pieces to different sections
We propose 4 days of filming and this may occur at some of the following locations:
- Dublin location convenient to interview sports people when available.
- Street footage/ maybe vox pops to capture imagery of a diverse Ireland.
- A secondary school in the Dublin area for interviews with young people and film presenter’s introduction.
- Waterford/Wexford location convenient to interview sports people when available.
- Waterford/Wexford location to feature interviews with people from different backgrounds.
While SRTRC will identify potential interviewees, the production company will be responsible for ensuring Informed Consent process is adhered with regards to each interviewee.
