  Pass The Parcel
   
  These five films were made by five talented groups of young people across Somerset, guided by filmmaker Richard Tomlinson and produced by Take Art. The young people were involved in every aspect of the pre-production, filming and post-production, developing the script, experimenting with different film techniques and performing in the film.
   
  Pass the Parcel is a strong example of partnership working and we give our heartfelt thanks to the many funders, collaborators, support workers, artists and, most of all, the talented crew.
