Scope and content

Hazelwood World News is TV news, which we filmed on Flaxart Studios Artist in Residence Program in Belfast at Hazelwood Integrated Primary School. We organized a workshop for 10 and 11 years old pupils, with the goal to make a newspaper and TV news. We asked children to write articles on various subjects about events, which will occur in their future, for example in 2027, but to write them in the present tense. We didn't intervene in content and form of their texts and they remained in whole such as the children had formulated them. Hazelwood World News is a news report composed of stories, whose authors are children and their messages are being transmitted to the wider audience. By means of imaginary news, this news report reveals the multi layered social reality. Through children's stories we learn about their perception of the world and the media landscape, and about the impact of mass communication media on formation of their identity. In Hazelwood World News the innocence, sharpness and wit overlap with striking style of shaping and delivering news. Thus the content and form of the news as well as the way they are delivered, unintentionally express irony about our daily experience of reality as it is being mediated to us by the mass communication media. In April 2007 Hazelwood World News was broadcast on NVTV – Northern Visions Television in Belfast.
