During the course of last term, as per our blog posts, we carried out some key stage 1 and key stage 2 workshops involving static and live action filming with the children to create individual pieces of footage incorporating both pupils and their artwork.
Puppetman have been working hard throughout the summer months to further develop these workshops to ensure
greater flexibility around subject matter and full pupil participation.
The workshops are aimed at key stage 2, class 5 and above
and involve the use of chroma key (filming against a green background and then
adding a backdrop afterwards), live action filming, importing of video and
music clips and the creation of title sequences. The end
result will be a short informative program, created entirely by the pupils.
In this still, Will and Ben were filmed against green and then chroma keyed against the background that you see here:
As I am sure that you will appreciate, this type of workshop
has many cross curricular benefits, as well as giving the children an insight
into television production. It can also act as transitional project work within
the move from primary to secondary school.
Have a look at this short sample video in connection with global warming and the floods in Hebden Bridge. If this embedded version of the video is not operating as intended, please view the original video here.
