Read about Mark's experience making a video with Cardiff People First called "Bob Apple"

My name is Mark and I am supported by ategi's Visiting Support team.

I am a member of Cardiff People First where I made a video called Bob Apple.

Bob Apple's dream is to win a race, but he has an unfortunate problem he keeps forgetting things.  His cruel sisters and brother are determined that he never fulfils his dream.  Will Bob prove them wrong?

I was the character called Bob Apple.  I had to run from Cardiff to Swansea and then Swansea to New York through a tunnel.

Of course it was only acting and I did not really run that distance.  I really enjoyed the project and it took weeks to make.  The film only lasts for 3 minutes even though it cost over £500 to make.
