This terms topic is the Very Important Bear. The Very Important Bear is a bear called Buddy who was the main star of the films we made. We were split into 7 groups of 3 and I was in a group with Grace B and Jordan B. The first thing that we did was write individual movie pitches about a story. We had to present it to the class. We chose to take Graces movie pitch called Prince of and Unknown Realm. After the movie pitch we made idea boards about our movies and scenes. We added in more information and as a group thought of new ideas for the film. Next we had a visit from Miss Hunter from Primary 4 and she taught us about storyboards and camera angles. The next day we took that information into account and made our very own storyboards with pictures. We also made 2 scenes that Grace B was in charge of. We made a forest and a Queens Lair. During the making of the films we worked on games. We made pairs and a actor knowledge game. Next we worked on the script that we would be using in the film. We wrote 6 scenes of script for the 6 scenes in our movie. We also worked on a poster with pictures of the realm and in big bold writing the words PRINCE OF AN UNKNOWN REALM. We were now ready to film. Charlie was the camera man for the first three scenes whilst Jordan was Buddy. Grace was Tracy, Alloah, Photon and the evil Queen. Once we had finished the filming we would have an Oscars Evening.
The Oscars was yesterday at 2pm. Charlie and Grace Sherry opened the show. It started off with showing all of the films. Finding Buddy, Buddy Bond, Buddy’s Big Adventure, Prince of an Unknown Realm, Bearassic Park, The Odd Love Story and How The Bear Stole Christmas. We were all set up in stations and after the films everybody came around the stations and played our games and looked at our board. Everybody who came around were very positive to every group. After that everybody sat down in their chairs again and waited for the moment of truth, The Awards. Every group won an award and our group got best scenery. The best film award was Bearassic Park made by Abigail Baird, Scott Adamson and Jordan Fleming. The show was closed by Helen Boywer and Scott Menzies.
