Facilitator Call – Videographer
West Limerick Resources CLG is seeking to recruit an experienced videographer to develop audiovisual assets for the updated 1,2,3 Rhymes for You and Me book (currently underway). This project is funded by HSE Mid West and overseen by a subgroup of the Mid West Traveller Health Unit.
Background
Under a regional Best Start (Traveller Child Health) initiative, a speech and language project is being developed and delivered between HSE Mid West Speech and Language Therapy (SLT) Service and the five Primary Healthcare Projects for Travellers (PHCPTs) in the Mid West region. These are based in West Limerick (Newcastle West), East Limerick (Kilmallock), Clare (Ennis), North Tipperary (Nenagh) and Limerick City.
1,2,3 Rhymes for You and Me uses eight well-known nursery rhymes and includes a book with QR code links to short videos. These videos will portray a fun and engaging nursery rhyme with a crafts resource for children and families, supporting early childhood development, learning, language and positive family/caregiver engagement.
Purpose of the Tender
We are looking for a videographer to record and produce short, high-quality videos to accompany the 1,2,3 Rhymes for You and Me book. These will be similar to the current suite of 1,2,3 Rhymes for You and Me videos on the West Limerick Resources CLG YouTube channel. The successful applicant will work closely with the working group, which includes West Limerick Primary Healthcare Programme Coordinator, HSE Mid West Speech and Language Therapy (SLT) Service Manager and HSE Mid West Coordinator for Traveller Health. The successful applicant will film in different locations in the Mid West and work closely with each of the PHCTPs and the children and families involved in the project in each location (as outlined above).
