The P6 Film Club at Williamsburgh PS were recent runners up in @intofilm_edu film of the month. They have been asked to submit their film for the Film of the Year Awards in the under 11 category and ‘Changes For a Better World’ category. Well done to them! Thank-you to their teacher Mr McMaster for sharing what they did!
Four primary 6 pupils, wrote, story boarded and filmed their movie. This was their first independent film, so they chose to a powerful theme. They decided to use camera angles, framing, music and direction to get their message across. They spent a long time figuring our the correct angles to use to highlight the emotions of the piece. They shot the film in two units, out of sync (relying on storyboards) in just under 2 hours. The scene numbers were written on whiteboards and placed before the camera prior to calling action, making it easier to identify the scenes by the thumbnail in the camera roll. They auditioned class mates and rehearsed with them prior to filming and scouted for the best locations to film. Throughout planning they searched on YouTube and tunetank.com to find appropriate music for their film.
The children wanted to make people aware bullies can make their victims feel miserable, worthless and isolated. They drew upon their own experiences and the experiences of others to create this short film. They wanted to show that, for the victim, just knowing someone has their back means they are not alone and they are valued.
We were given some fantastic feedback from the judges :
