School is Cool

This week we have been learning about creating storyboards for our Conflict and Resolution documentaries. We have also been pondering camera angles, different shots and movement to enhance the effect of our movies as well as maintain audience interest. John, Ben and Madison, our experienced documentary crew,  organised a School is Cool project  to practice our skills. They also helped us to reflect on our creations with their feedback. We hope you can learn from our practice, enjoy.

    Nice job on your School is Cool videos. I wanted to finish watching them because of your winsome invitation at the end of your post. You said, "Thank you for visiting our blog, please don't go without leaving a comment with a link to your blog, so we can visit you." You sounded very sincere, so I watched your videos and now I'm leaving a comment.

    On the well-made videos you showed some really interesting things about your school. The first video has some catchy editing techniques. You used cool effects to keep my interest. The second video really showed so many wonderful aspects of marvelous your school--the art work, mural, your tidy room, tennis court, radio station, etc.

    Two suggestions I have: One, make the editing a little tighter. I like to watch videos about 3-4 minutes in length, otherwise I get too busy and don't watch the whole thing. (Remember, it was only your polite plea at the end of your blog post that kept me here this time!) Another suggestion is when the girls in the second video left the radio station, I couldn't understand it, so perhaps writing it across the screen at that time would have been helpful.

    Keep up the great video production and blogging. You all did a great job! Now, my name is Mrs. Krebs, and my students have made some videos too. You can visit their blog at
