Movie Making

Our senior students have been having a fantastic time learning about movie making. Out and about in the village the lessons have included activities in creating storyboards, use of different camera shots and understanding how light and sound affects movies.

Back in class the students have been engaged in learning all about Microsoft Movie Maker and how to import footage and using special effects and transitions to create fun short movies.

Our major project has been to put together a movie to send to our exchange school in Finland. The students there recently sent us a package of letters and they are looking forward to watching our movie all about Hill End.

Our planning next term is to have our students talk live via Skype with the children in Finland and have them learn a little more about life in each of the two countries.
