This film project was supported by Macquarie ICT Innovations Centre and The Multicultural Programs Unit.
Schools (Years K-12) were asked to develop a 3 minute film which portrayed a typical day in their students’ lives. The films focused on individual students and groups of students and aimed to reflect the diversity of student backgrounds within the school.
Students used skills which are taught in Visual Art, Photography, English, Design and Drama. Students followed time lines, story boards and prepared work outside of school and lesson times.
Students experimented with basic film making techniques and editing techniques to produce their films.
All of the student films were shown at a special lunch time screening. While some student film clips were published online for other schools to view and respond to.
