Film It

Film It is an intensive introduction to the process of film production for students in Years 5-10. Students work collaboratively in teams to write and shoot a simple short film, and then complete a first-cut edit in the ACMI post production studio.

This fun cross-curriculum experience brings traditional learning and new technologies together in a rich learning process, and supports the implementation of the Victorian Essential Learning Standards (VELS), drawing together the three strands and supporting student growth across the domains.

The Film It program is designed to develop skills and interest in screen based storytelling and team work, and to extend knowledge and understanding of the three key filmmaking stages:

  • Pre-production - writing story outlines and scripts and preparing for the shoot.
  • Production - running the shoot, performing, and recording images and sound on location.
  • Post-production - putting all the elements together to tell the story including editing, the addition of music and sound effects, titles and credits.
 
The students' final productions are provided on DVD for further viewing, analysis and enjoyment.
