CC4 hit the judges for 6 in National Video Competition
CC4 have been awarded 3rd place in the prestigious Nat West
Cricket Force Video Diary competition for their work at St
Fagans Cricket Club in Cardiff.
The company spent the weekend filming at the cricket club,
capturing footage of Ashes hero Simon Jones along with ECB
Chairman David Morgan helping club members prepare the
grounds and the pavilion for the current season. Cricket
Force is an ECB initiative which encourages volunteers and
sponsors from local communities throughout the UK to help
"spruce up" their local cricket clubs in preparation for the
new season. The 2006 event saw over 70,000 volunteers
generate over £30 million worth of help at more than 1050
clubs throughout the UK.
Simon Jones was joined by Glamorgan colleagues Darren
Thomas, Mark Wallace, David Harrison, Adam harrison, Will
Bragg and Huw Waters, all of whom helped out repainting
thepavilion as well as coaching St Fagans youngsters. Well
over 100 volunteers from the local community turned out to
refurbish the scoreboard, paint the sightscreens, pavilion
and the surrounding fence, rebuild the covers and generally
tidy up the grounds.
CC4 filmed the activities all weekend, and then turned the
results into the prize winning video. Additionally, a number
of youngsters were given the opportunity to run the camera,
and act as Sound Assistants, giving them additional interest
in the final video output.
The judges citation reads; "a very professional production,
a credit to the Cardiff club".
