If Heaven was a mile away
If Heaven Was a Mile Away is a great track made by young people Dre, Grace, Risade, Jemal and Daniel who visited The Lab. The track is based on the topic of faith and artists express how having God in their lives keeps them focused. They created a vibrant mixture of rapping and singing on the track whilst the video was shot on The Lab. Great work guys!
The Lab Takeover
In December 2010 a dedicated team of creative young people were recruited for our Scaling Up Project to organise and host The Lab’s annual showcase event- The Lab Takeover. The team attended weekly meetings to discuss plans for the event and participated in a training programme including Photography, Music Production and Animation workshops. They organised everything from holding auditions and choosing the acts right down to the stage and lighting hire. The event was held on Friday 25th March and was a huge success! A big well done to Sonia and the Scaling Up Team for all their hard work, we’re already looking forward to next years event! Here a few highlights from the day, to see more pics and some behind the scenes stuff check out The Lab blog http://rollingsoundthelab.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html

The RollingSound Anthem 2011!
The team on board The Lab wrote, produced and performed this track entitled ‘RollingSound The Anthem’.
Going through each member of the team one by one, they manage to highlight just some of the good work we do here at RollingSound – in a humorous way, of course!
Hope you enjoy!
Equipment and IT Manager vacancy
We are currently recruiting for an Equipment & IT Manager to join our team
RollingSound is an organisation that designs and delivers relevant, engaging, and inspiring creative multimedia training courses for “at risk” young people throughout London and surrounding areas. We train and accredit in areas including Music Production, Film, Video Game Development and more.
We currently have a need for Equipment and IT Manager at our head office in New Cross.
We are looking for someone with:
- A good knowledge in IT systems including Office IT and Server maintenance
- Knowledge of technical equipment from laptops to video cameras to cables
- A healthy interest in creative media
- Excellent attention to detail and organisational skills
- Able to use own initiative
You will have overall responsibility for tracking and maintaining all RollingSound technical equipment including IT, AV and peripherals. You will be partially responsible for developing an appropriate tracking system but will be wholly responsible for its implementation and review.
You will also be required to collate, dispatch and receive equipment on a daily basis in accordance to instructions from the project teams. As this may sometimes require you to deliver something personally, a clean driver’s licence and your own car would be an added advantage.

Young People’s Photography, Jan 2011
RollingSound recently completed a 6 week photography course for NEET young people in the East London area. One project worker at Connexions noted the ‘enormous difference’ that the course had made to two of the participants referred to the course, both of whom had suffered bullying in the past and thanked us for ‘creating an atmosphere that allowed them to thrive.’
Both students are now hoping to study photography at College and we wish them all the best!

The Secret Evillaire: Newham Summer Uni 2010
Over 300 young people took part in RollingSound Summer Uni courses all over London this year – spanning 12 boroughs.
Here you can see an example of some of the work produced by young people of Newham during this year’s program.
The Secret Evillaire is a spoof of the Channel 4 The Secret Millionaire program, in which an evil Director of a drinks company tries to take over the world! An incredibly imaginative and very funny creation the young people of Newham!
