Hazara Faces

The video below is the first of our Kite Runner clips. This video focuses on the Hazara and has images of the people and their homeland. For more information on the Hazara go to this recent National Geographic article.

An introduction to The Kite Runner

I have put together this simple slideshow to give you some more information about the setting and the author Khaled Hosseini so that you will find it easier to understand the novel.

The Final Showdown

Some Year 10 students are studying the Tim Burton film ‘Edward Scissorhands’ at the moment. I have added a slideshow from Dean called ‘Edward Scissorhands-The Final Showdown’. It is on Slideshare and unfortunately Dean’s great animation effects got lost in translation but you still get the idea.

Static Image Slide Show

Next term some of you are going to make a static image as part of your Year 11 English studies. Check out these examples of static images made by your classmates.

Schindler’s List

I have added a brief powerpoint for the Year 12 students who are studying Schindler’s List. The slideshow contains some ideas about how to approach analysing the film.

The slideshow could have been better constructed as I have put too much information on some slides and used a few too many bullet points but hopefully it will be of some use.

Film Terms

Some of the Year 11 English students have been making slideshows as part of their coursework and here are some examples of their work. They are here in an altered form as the slideshows had some interesting special effects that unfortunately cannot be uploaded by SlideShare. The first slideshow is from Toby, Andrew and Quentin who have been researching film terms. They matched up the terms with photos that they took at the College.

This slideshow is also on film techiques and it is made by Chas and Ethan.

The last slideshow is by Alexis, Rebecca, Rose, Sophie and Valeska and it is based around photos that they took at school.

The adventures of Mandarin Man

Hannah has sent in this entry for the ‘Fun with Fruit’ competition that is absolutely amazing. It is on SlideShare but I have added it below. Watch it, you will love it!

A fantastic effort Hannah, you are a born filmmaker!

Even more fun with fruit

Cerise entered my ‘Fun with Fruit’ slideshow competition. Her entry is called ‘Banana Slide’ and it is on Slideshare. When last I looked it had over 600 hits!

I have posted it below.
