Manaiakalani Film Festival 2012-School is cool

In Term 2 we were learning a lot about movie magic, and how movies can influence our world. We created many movies. We started by brainstorming key messages we could include in our movies. 

We also made a movie that explains how to plant kumara. It was really fun to do. We created this movie to inspire people to learn how to grow their own kumara.


Our movie for The Manaiakalani Film Festival is called 'School Is Cool'. We made it to share all of the cool learning and fun that we have at school.

Our movie was also shown at the Tamaki Primary Academy Awards. We created a PMI about Movie Magic and shared what we liked, what was challenging and interesting.

GuyFawkes

As the moon shines above us,the  fireworks shot up into the sky with different rainbow colours. The ashes flew above the ground I could taste the farness of the smoke and I could hear the fireworks popping in the sky with different sounds.I felt motivated and excited when the fireworks shot up to the sky with the colours of the rainbow.As I saw lots of people dancing on the streets and I could also hear the laughter of families as the Guy Fawkes shot up in the crystal clear dark sky.What an amazing, spectacular night.

Minus

What challenges did you have with this unit? 

• Waiting for our turn to film because there was only one flip-cam and a tripod.  
• We had some groups using the same filming location so we had to wait for them to finish filming and sometimes it ment we couldn't film because they were taking too long. For example the staff room, corridor, reading room etc.
• We couldn’t film sometimes as some students were away and the weather was not too good as well.  
• Memorising our lines for our scripts.

• Adding sound effects and music to our movies.  
• Learning how professional film makers make movies and trying to develop their skills throughout the process of our film making experience.

•  
• Solution
  How could we improve on this unit next time. 
•   More flip-cams and tripods.  
• Have the Imovie programme on our netbooks so that we could edit our movies instead of waiting for a group to finish.

Along time ago  in a island  there lived a handsome boy his name was William and he had a pet called Harmony.  They lived in a small village  called Jamaica. William was bored so he decided to watch Ben 10  when suddenly a familiar Add came on channel 2 It said, ‘Hi William I am Nathan I have a Job for you. I  want you to go in the  woods to find the missing violin, ‘.So off they went to search for the lost violin.


When they got there they heard an  unusual sound coming out of the ground William quickly dashed to the opposite side of the corner .It started to rain and get gloomy also   breezy  around them they  could hear  the wolf howling in a angry voice.The wolves    could smell the moist blood and they knew people were there so the pirates sent them to go hunt for them  they sniffed  and sniffed  and found William  and Harmony they  took him and the pet  by their sharp , pointy teeth and  took them to the castle they showed the pirate and he looked at  them  and told him to lock them in  the cage.They left  without the map because the pirate was so excited he couldn't wait.


They were stuck in the cage utili  Harmony  reached his tail out of the corner and locked the map around his tail they open the map and inside was a key  to  unlock the cage and they were  finally free.They rushed out of the castle  and followed the map.Then they saw the pirate in a frown because he knew he forgot the map he ran back to the castle and realised they escaped this is worst day ever he yelled.They kept on going on until they found the violin.They found the missing violin and rushed home to the t.v they clicked channel 2  and typed in violin he came on the screen again he told them to  put it threw the screen but he said no he then  thought about it and he did it. It  went threw the screen but William thought it was going to smash but it didn't he was surprised and then the adventure was exstapillshed.
