Having a Imacs make my life so much easier for this unit.  It is working really well.  We have look at Melodrama and Silent Films.  The students learn about the stock characters and the gestures and movements associated with them.  Then in groups, they have to create the storyline and show me a story board before they film.  The kids have been using Celtex - which is a on line storyboarding site, Pages on imac - gives you a story board and then for some the old fashion way - drawing.  I like that I have a range.  So at the moment they are doing the filming.  A couple have finished and now as a link with Music, they are creating a sound track to go with the movie.  The imac allows you to edit quite easily.  Will out up some past exampled and the ones from this year.
