The Socially Distanced Film Festival, Tuesday May 4:
Films will be released on Tuesday, May 4. Families can dress up and watch them together before 7:00 p.m. From 7:00 to 8:00 we will use a Zoom meeting to allow students to talk about making their film, answer other students’ questions, and receive fun awards. All films get an award!

When making videos think about the following:
  • Adding background music and sound effects makes for a more interesting movie.
  • Adding text, captions or title screens can add a lot to sharing your story.
  • Use fast motion, slow motion, or reverse footage to mix things up.
  • Adding a title and/or credits can be fun.
  • A movie can be made from narrating a collection of still images.
  • There are all different types of short movies to be made. For example: interviewing someone interesting, interviewing a stuffed animal, creating a documentary about a pet, sharing a special day or vacation, shooting video of something interesting or scenic (pretty), mounting a camera on your dog, get creative!
