Coptic Orthodox Church helps Fiji Orphans

The Coptic Orthodox Church in Melbourne approached Rockmans Creative Media for an exciting new video production project in early 2010. The Church does a large amount of Mission work in Fiji and their next venture is to build an orphanage for 100 boys and girls in Nadi, Fiji.
To successfully fund the orphanage the Church commissioned RCM to produce a promotional video. After many group meetings the concept decided on was Though the Eyes of a Child. A promotional video production hosted and narrated by 4 Fijian children. This was a great way to achieve a soft sell video that comes from the heart.
RCM spent 2 days shooting in Suva, Fiji on a whirl wind trip with little sleep. With our 2 guides we ventured into the streets and markets, into squatter villages and small communities. We then spent 5 days in our Avid edit suite and created variations of the promotional video. This is the Directors Cut. Take note at the 1 minute 45 seconds mark for one of those magical shots that cant be scripted...a young orphan boy sitting sad and idle sees a child the same age on his way to school. They lock eyes and the orphan gives him a smile but as soon as the school boy passes he cannot hide the look of sorrow in his face as he wonders...why not me?
