Film Festival 2019


Today is a special day - the annual film festival.  Below is a short movie of the two students from our class who will be presenting our movie.  So while you are reading this post, it is entirely possible that our class will be screening our movie.



This year we have found that the make-up of our class meant that we were having so many conflicts with each other.  We had started to try different ways to stop the class being upset.  We have been working on avoiding the things that upset or minimizing the effects of the different things that upset us.  Here is a short movie on what you could do when there is a situation that could be very explosive and what you could do to stop that from happening.





The whole class participated and while only half of the class had speaking or acting parts, it was a combined effort.  Below you will find the take out reel or blooper reel for this movie.  We discussed how we managed to complete the film in a short time and how it was so easy.  Everyone agreed until we saw the blooper reel.  The truth is there were many practices, re-shoots, and so many opportunities for learning to happen.




We were fortunate to have a talented set of students because we actually made 4 movies.  Each group has blogged their movie and their blooper reel.  Feel free to visit their blogs to see what story they wanted to tell.
