In this lesson our groups got to act out and give a 30 second preview trailer to the rest of the companies. Going into the class you could just tell that the students were excited to get started and wanted to act out the parts. They were already talking about the parts they had and the costumes they were going to wear.
Some of the steps that we took to prepare for this lesson was getting the scrips together for the students to read, outfits for them to wear and practice acting out as a group together. The students loved the outfits that they had, for example the girls loved the high heels that the Mount students brought in for them. The Mount students were afraid that they were going to hurt them selves because they were walking up and down the hallway making believe they were on the run way in a modeling shoot. All in all they handled it well and didn't make any mistakes.
Once it was Diamond Works time to go they set up in front of the classroom and began. All the other companies thought it was funny and they really seemed interested. This was a great lesson for the students to finally have some fun with the movie and they all enjoyed one another's trailer.
After all the companies had gone the companies had to get together as group and discuss how much they thought their movie was going to make in the end of the showing. The companies handled this very well and they were listening to each others ideas. That was probably one of the most difficult tasks for the students to get over last time together as a company but this time they mastered it. They knew they had to listen and give good positive feedback to each other ideas and thoughts.This process went smoothly and they came up with an amount they though was reasonable to reach. The girls at this point wanted to keep on the high heels and keep everything that the Mount students brought in for them.
The students really enjoyed this lesson and I believe they couldn't wait to get ready for the next time and go further into their movies.
