Thanks tng, glad to be here. Getting to grips with how everything works still but I'm already feeling positive vibes from the community. Really refreshing after the cynicism that larger websites seem to draw in.

In regards to your comments, it was precisely these issues that drove me to make the film. I got the idea from some conference notes I found on the internet. Young Muslims were asked to draw how they felt the media portrayed Muslims. The results were, of course, stereotypical "Islamists". You are right in that the general population find it difficult to think about these issues abstractly, they want or prefer simple answers. Education is the key I think.

The general poor quality is down to having no budget and poor equipment. We're trying to get more funding for Raw but it's a catch 22 - can't get proper funding without good films, can't get good films without funding. I've invested some of my own money into audio equipment for the next one.

Where are you based btw? If you're in the UK feel free to drop me message if want to collaborate.

Thanks again for watching and commenting. Feel free to share any videos you make with me!
