Edtech Sydney: Jim Sill

Another inspiring problem solver and innovator - Jim Sill. If you need any tips about movie making and Film this is the site for you. It could not have come at a better time as I am preparing for the Manaiakalani Film Festival and looking into ways I can support teachers with the development of their movies. 

This session had so many top tip takeaways as I was able to see what a great intro to a movie needs. Take a look at the many resources on his website to find out more!! 
Introduction to a movie (robber trying to steal gems and jewels from the school): 
1. Wide shot - set the scene eg have stand outside of the school and record the entrance to make it clear it is a school by including the name 
2. Close up shot - show the main character eg show robber creeping around the school possibly climbing up the wall 
3. Close up shot - show their face/ main characteristic of them eg show they are wearing a mask
4. Extreme Close up - show the prize/main event/problem/finish line - show what the character is trying to overcome/achieve/struggle with eg show the jewellery/ gems
