Heathrow Airport Documentary

A handful of students from our own in-house radio station and production company, Youths Choice have worked tirelessly on producing a digital-first documentary that looks at the impact of Heathrow Airport in recent current affairs.

Heathrow was one of the world’s great airports, it seemed unstoppable, with ever-increasing passenger numbers and a third runway planned, the future looked bright. Then Covid happened.

The video which involved multiple pupils from all years at the Academy was made in partnership with Simpleflying.comand AirlineGeeks.com to an industry standard.

Youths Choice Production

Students worked in teams to produce the content having to write scripts, secure guests, film on location, create graphics and then edit and post-produce the final version. The documentary is hosted by Year 13 student Sam Fenner.

The project was a full team effort and there was a lot of lessons learnt on the way. We’re delighted with the final product and can’t wait to get out there and create the next piece of content for Youths Choice. Students get the chance to work with industry standard equipment to produce content they’re proud of!
