Hey, I was using that!

Each team drew a couple of potential Genres randomly, and they selected one of them.  

Here are the finished films:

And for 2 years running, one of the camp favorites has been a side project about Langston Brown.  Will Crabtre says that this is version 1.  A Version 2 may be forthcoming.

Here it is:

The Lanston Movie Part 2

Wednesday

We covered Film Genres, and we gave each team the exact same script.  They were allowed to pick their own genres to make their movies in. Here was their prompt:

June 2024 Video Camp Genre Script

On Camera: Look, I try to take life minute by minute.

VOICEOVER:  Even So,I don’t expect one minute to be radically different from the previous minute. But today, one perfectly ordinary minute gave up the ghost, only to be replaced by a minute that none of us will ever forget.

Closing Statement to be written by the group

Some people pieced together some stop motion and other pieces together:

DETAILS:

The students will learn how to write, record, edit, and publish video productions.   The students will use personal devices like phones and tablets as well as camp-supplied iPads, video cameras, microphones, a teleprompter, green screen, etc.  Students who have participated in one of our video camps before will be put in a group appropriate to their experience and ability.

 

There will be an official welcome packet that comes out the week prior to the camp with some more exact details.

 

There is still time to request to be paired up with someone who is already registered or to tell a friend to sign up for the camp to join you.  Sooner is better for us, because as the number of students grows, sometimes we pull in additional help for parts of the camp.   

 

The camp will include some indoor classroom activity, some outdoor instruction and recording, some group projects, and some solo projects.  We would like as many students as possible to bring their portable devices with them to camp.  If your student will NOT be bringing a portable device to camp, please let us know, so we can take an inventory of who will have what.  

 

Students will bring their lunch, and be dressed for some outdoor time.

All of the most up-to-date camp details will be on this camp page. 

 Looking forward to connecting with these students this summer.  Please feel free to reach out in advance if you have questions.
