To start off this exciting unit, children were introduced to video as a media format. They watched examples of videos that showcased various production and editing techniques, which they later worked towards using in their own creations. The children also discussed what actions to take if they encountered any inappropriate content online. They began by explaining what the medium of video is, before analysing and comparing different video examples.
Following this, children explored the capabilities of a digital device that could be used to record video. Once they became familiar with their device, the children experimented with different camera angles, considering how various angles could be used for different purposes.
ADD WORK
After this, children put their knowledge into action by creating a storyboard outlinig scenes in their own video. Their storyboards described each scene and included a script, camera angles, and filming techniques. The children then used their storyboards to film the first scene of their videos.
