Well the children were amazing when they showcased their term’s work. Year 5 and 6 wowed parents, staff and children with their animations, interviews and feature presentation. Thanks to Shari Bee who created the DVD and led us on an incredible journey through film, editing and creation.

Watch this space to find out how much the DVD costs and how you can order your own copy.

The phoenix blog is now professional – lots of space to upload our movies. If you want to add movies, photos, ideas make sure you clear it with Mrs Humphriss – blog editor and then see our ICT admin.

For Year 6 Sam and for Year 5 see Harriet and Lucy.

Everyone will be looking forward to seeing a range of Phoenix work – go go go.

The children were given the task of trying to work out what might happen in the experiment. Lots of different ideas about the results. Maybe the children can upload their own guesses and then what really happened.

Did you guess the right result?

Production Wheel

February 23rd, 2010 by · 8 Comments · Media

Today we looked at the different stages of production and created a production wheel together.

Seven steps in movie making, from ideas to popcorn!

Seven steps in movie making, from ideas to popcorn!

The Seven Stages of Filmmaking and Animation…

1. IDEAS + SHARING

First we have to do a LOT of talking and thinking and sharing to begin pulling out some ideas.

2. IN SEARCH OF THE NUT

Then we go looking for the nut of the idea – the reason for making our movie.

3. EDIT + STORYBOARD

When we find the nut, it is time to draw out a sequence. We do this with a storyboard.

4. SHOOTING SCRIPT

After the storyboard we need to start writing our script list, so that we know what to film first!

5. SHOOT + ACT + SHOOT + ACT

With the shooting script we can plan the shoot and organise our actors and scenes.

6. EDIT WITH BIG SCISSORS

Time to get tough with the computer and snip snip snip until we have our final movie.

7. SHOWTIME!!!!

Sit back, break out the popcorn and ENJOY!!
