Hello, it's Zara to tell you about the Media Summer School we've been having this week.  I've been co-facilitating with Bee and Dave.

It's about media and filmmaking, the participants have been learning about film and technology, and having fun as well!  We've been playing lots of games like Zip, Zap, Boing and Pass the Clap which everyone really enjoyed.  We're trying to get faster and faster at Pass the Clap - we did it 3 times today and it's getting faster.

We've been trying to create little short films, they can be about anything - for the one my group are doing, we filmed two people with their faces together moving their eyes.  Then we projected the film of their eyes moving onto different surfaces, it looks kind of scary because we have edited it with spooky music as well.

It's been a really good week, the group are very lively.  On Friday there's going to be a showing for parents and friends when we'll show all the films that have been made.  I think they'll like the films and be impressed with what we've done, some of the films are a bit weird and some are very funny.
