Examples of students' work 2: Music videos and dramas

The next in this series of posts looks at the 3rd and 4th options for the end of course project.

Music videos


One of the challenges with the music video was to make sure that the students had rights to the music they used.  We reminded them about creative commons music, but several found (or were) artists who were willing to let their music video be used.  The overall standard for this option was very high, and includes some of my favourite films.

Dramas

The drama option was linked to the fashion for ultra-short dramas for film competitions.  This didn't mean our students had to enter a competition, but rather that the rules (and the resources that often accompany such a competition would help them to shape something short and sharp)
