Media Arts

In Media Arts the Grade 5 and 6 students have been working on claymation videos. It is a fun process, but a slow one! The students developed every element from scratch. They wrote their story lines, designed their 

backdrops on Canva, and made all characters and props out of clay. Students made decisions about lighting and sound effects. Lastly, students edited their films using the Stop Motion app. This included experimenting with screen masking technology to help their clay characters and props move through the air.  The criteria for their stories was a success or failure in the context of a sporting or performing goal.
