My Providence“Think you know Providence? Then put your movie where your mouth is.” Over the next few weeks, the Documentary Production class is working on videos for the Department of Art, Culture, and Tourism’s “My Providence” video contest! Media LiteracyOn March 28 we talked about media literacy. We started out discussing what we mean when we say media, and from there we picked several categories of media we engage with regularly (YouTube, text messages, etc) and designated M&M colors for each category. Then we sorted M&Ms based on how many times we engaged with those different forms of media over the past weekend to get an idea of how much and how often we are exposed to (and influenced by) media in our lives. The results made everyone think.
We moved on to talking about literacy, and why literacy is important. We took a media literacy quiz quiz together, and talked about the various ways you can create (and recognize) persuasive or subjective media. We ended class by watching and discussing Outfoxed, a documentary on Fox News… while we ate the M&Ms. Dona Nobis Pacem – Leonids

F Major Etude – Leonids[audio:http://www.communitymusicworks.org/medialab/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/april-etude-leonids-1.mp3|titles=april etude leonids 1] Documentary Class updateThe last several weeks have been very productive for the Documentary Team! On February 14, we focused on interviews. We watched and talked about the below videos, and then practiced interviewing each other. We set up our interview shots to convey different moods, via lighting, focal length, and camera angle: warm, scary, intimate, and distant. Fifty People, One Question And see more photos here. February 21 we watched and talked about the documentary Rip: A Remix Manifesto. We only planned to watch a portion of it, but it was so captivating that we couldn’t stop! The class had a little homework: To find and bring in a short, interesting documentary piece to share next week. On February 28, we started class by looking at short documentary films everyone watched over the week and used them to talk about structure and shooting styles. We then watched some other films (below) to learn about different filmmaking concepts, and ended the day doing some storyboarding for films to be shot over the next two weeks. http://www.icateens.org/fast-forward/gallery – #1 (music video), #4 (bird one), #5 (teasing), #7 (apples) Our next two meetings (March 14 and 21) were work days. We learned how to edit in iMovie 6HD and got to work. Our pieces will be finished soon – stay tuned!
