A photography student at Barking and Dagenham College was commissioned to produce a video for a youth dance charity.

Barking and Dagenham Youth Dance (BDYD) provided Gloria Mezzanotte with a collection of footage filmed remotely by young people in lockdown and she edited it together into a video called This Is Me: Lockdown 1.

Barking charity BDYD mainly works with young people aged five to 19, offering arts projects, youth dance workshops, community arts events and career pathway activities.

Ms Mezzanotte's teacher, the college's photography programme leader David Bennett, said: “Gloria did a great job and it was an excellent work experience opportunity for her.

“We really appreciate local companies and organisations using the services of our talented graduates and students.

“It’s a win-win situation for students and businesses.”
