SOUTH SUDAN SEVERE FOOD CRISIS! Reporter: Jaimie Reports on South Sudan have said that there is SEVERE starvation going on, the war is affecting the crops and thousands have already died, why?.... People are searching for scraps off the ground, “every seed counts” they would say, the amount of people without food and clothes is relentless, kids with no education and millions affected by the war. Is there any hope left for these Africans? People have traveled for months trying to avoid the war, a DAY’S work of chopping wood is 20 cents and as the famine increases so does the lack of water from the drought. Food inflation is over 100% and over 100,000 people are close to starvation. More and more people lack food and water from the army burning their crops to turning to wild fruit as a last resort. Caritas supporting in every way it can will it be enough for the incredible hardships these people face...

The people of South Sudan are suffering from hunger.In South Sudan there are Adults and Children are suffering from hunger, the food costs way more than it used to before. One small bag of sugar costs 10¢, and food inflation is over 100%.The people of South Sudan hunt for wild foods like wild berries, but wild berries aren’t very nutritious isn’t very nutritious. When children go around alone they have to carry a weapon just in case of bad people. You’re able to see the fear in the children and the adult’s eyes.

Hey ramsay

Media team

Today the media team got to meet with Kerry Du Pont who explained great ways to film videos and different ways to do so.

He taught us what he does and me and another boy got to interview him so he could tell us how we did and what was important about an interview. If you want to become and actor you have to be very patient and do the same scene over and over again until you get it the way they want it.

Kerry also taught us different ways to shoot a video for example you can sit on a wheel chair and get someone to push you closer to an item or person, the different types of shots can be...

Long shot, close shot, close wide shot and long wide shot.

We also talked about one of the shows Kerry films (What now) and how when you are making a T.V show you need a story behind it something that catches the audiences attention and make people want to watch it again.

Finally he talked about editing and and the cons of being famous, being famous can mean you lose a lot of privacy because people want to get to know you and be your friend and when what now had an interview with Justin Bieber they accidentally spilt a drink all over his pants and he left the interview but came back later and finished it. 

When editing a video it could be a months worth of taping but you only take certain parts to make it shorter and make it more interesting so people will want to watch it without falling asleep halfway through, tips are when you are recording that when you count down start your recording 2 seconds earlier before people start acting that way you can look back on it and fix your mistakes.

That's all we had time from the interview next we will be invited to look at what now behind the scenes!
