The creative brief was simple: Paston College students were to create a film inspired by Norfolk’s Deep History Coast. Never to turn down a challenge, the students set out to educate themselves on the rich history of their own communities on the beautiful Norfolk coastline. After the History students completed some initial research it was decided that the film would work in two parts. Part one would document the initial findings and research elements; they would ask the public how much they knew about the history beneath their own feet, then they would interview the professionals to get a deeper understanding of the comprehensive finds that the coastline had revealed. Part two would be a celebration of the ancient and modern communities; a poem was written and performed by drama students. Finally, the students edited the film and have been updating their progress on their website. norfolksdeephistoryfilmproject.com
