Now that we've seen my rather pathetic attempt at directing a short film, its time for the real stars to come out. Today students began brainstorming and storyboarding ideas for a 1-2 minute film on the water cycle that they will be making over the next week or so. Their ideas are already better than mine. We'll be making short movies on various topics all year, so this is a chance to learn the process and get our feet wet, pun intended.
Everyone was so excited that about a minute after I introduced the project, a student yelled "We're ready!!" and grabbed 2 cameras off my desk. But we're not going to start shooting anything until at least Friday and I can already see some students champing at the bit.
So ask your favorite student about their movie idea. I hope you'll get an earful.
