The UK based video and animation production
company Media Projects East and the Best Friend organized a three day
educational video animtion project with Burmese migrant children at the
Best Friend school KM 42 near Mae Sot.
KM 42 is a primary learning center and currently teaches around 400
children. The children are refugees from Burma, living under very poor
circumstances, most of them illegally in Thailand. The school is funded by Helfen ohne Grenzen and the Spanish NGO Colabora Birmania.
In the three day workshop the children created short cartoons including cardboard and plasticine models, painted backgounds as well as voice over work and video editing, involving the English alphabet and the life of the Buddha.
