Scream Green Screen


Members of the Parkview Book club at the Business and Enterprise Secondary School scripted, produced and edited a news video based on the story 'Snapshot' by Robert Swindells.

Using Green Screen technology the children produced a 3 minute film incorporating the facts of the book and trying to get readers to choose this book in the Key Stage 3 dares competition . They created an excellent piece of work using various skills: writing, creating and adding the music, acting and finally editing all the pieces in an organised manner.
Also last week, Bordesley Green Girls School enjoyed the company of the clc staff in their final session of an Art and Design project which was based on Portraits.

Art and Media Medley!


This week Bordesley Green Girls School will complete their Art and Design project in creating self portraits. Using Photoshop, the pupils will learn how to apply various techniques to a picture and produce a self portrait in different colours, shades, textures etc. Also, a visit to Small Heath Sixth Form will have A' Level students creating their own animation for a Media Studies session. This is an ongoing project that has a couple more sessions left before its completion. More on the outcome of these stories at the end of the week.
