27 March: Inspiration Session (4) Screaming in Visual Language: Student Voice in Film and Media Making

by Wayne Shackelford : The presentation shared how today's learners embraced film-making in the academic context - when students of all ages are quite naturally 'ready for close-up'. Exceedingly comfortable wiht visual modes of communication, learners are channeling powerful voices both behind and in front of the camera.

Our Observations and/or Takeaways...


From Irfan:

One key takeway is the quote shown: "Emulation the proven path to Mastery". Though film-making per se is something rather new as a means to teaching and learning, I do find the idea that film making in itself could be a rich and very effective platform of teaching, refreshing. And I don't mean film-making here in the sense of having just a storyline, but rather, the whole process and technicalities of behind-the-scenes actions that happens before, during, and even after the film has been made. And lastly, and more importantly, through film-making, we are giving students their due audience!
