More Filmmaking!

Our class continued to build sets for our films this week. One team worked on a city backdrop, including hotels made of brownie boxes and houses made from cut cardboard. Another team worked on a park for the same movie. Using play dough and clay, some students put together characters and items for the sets. The park has a fountain, benches and trash cans. Other students used tempura paint to make the backdrops colorful. The classroom at the end of the day showed the remnants of lots of creativity from the day; lots of pipe cleaners, foam pieces, cardboard, and paint splatters were strewn across the room! The students did a good job helping to clean-up, and we ended up getting to film one of the sets. Next week, we are looking forward to putting the finishing touches on the project and filming our movies!
