I've spent a good deal of time this summer putting together a publication that showcases the results of two years of the Media Sandbox scheme. I've worked with some really great people on it - so thanks to Steve Wright who produced the articles; Toby Farrow who produced the photography; writer and commentator Bill Thompson who provided a short contextual essay; and of course to all the participants from the two years of the scheme who have been brilliant to work with.

I'd especially like to thank John Durrant from BDH, who really kindly re-worked one of the images from the Happytowns project for the front cover.

Thanks also go to this year’s panel of Industry Advisors for their valuable contributions; and to our funders – South West Screen, SWRDA & Watershed - for their continued support.

The publication can be viewed online through the Yudu publishing platform, (hard copies available on request).

We hope you enjoy it.
