It was recorded on location and shows the ch...ildren's investigation of their equipment and first experiments. It then goes on to compare two different stories which they dramatised and directed for camera and then we compare the pictures the children made on their machines with those made by the professional cameras. The programme ends with the children's exploration of this workshop environment and in particular the cameras and equipment of the professionals who recorded their activity.
