Anne Cameron, chairwoman of the Future Impact Group, said the program was designed to reclaim the narrative around the town.

"The community identified that we needed to build up community pride and this was one of the ways that we thought would be a good reflection back to the community," she said.

"People loved to live in George Town, they weren't necessarily proud of that fact because there's been some negativity over the past decade."

"What we've done is harness what is good about George Town and put it in a film."

Ms Cameron said the the public would be impressed by the level of skill involved in the creations, especially from students of Port Dalrymple High School.

"The kids had a ball, they absolutely had a ball," she said.

"The quality is sensational ... the quality is excellent."

The upcoming project exhibition will feature still photography from the gems and a QR code which people can use to view the gem film.
