I'm very proud tonight of my daughter Alex and her friend Elisha who have just finished a short film for a school project. Alex is 11, and they have made the whole movie below themselves. The challenge was to do an "Olympic Bid" on behalf of their chosen city Japan, and as part of that they did a news item. Unfortunately this movie doesn't do them justice. They were working with a poor green screen (for a start it was blue), poor lighting, and of course all the iterations of change to file format from opiginal capture with Videocue Pro, to iMovie and then moving to youtube means they have lost a lot of the original quality. LOL the scary part is I am sure the girls aspire to have a setup like that at www.geekbrief.tv They did the whole thing from research, story writing, video capture, image selection, acting, editing etc themselves* . Anyway, they may have a long way to go, but they have made an excellent effort. They love playing with the technology, are really comfortable in front of the camera and I think one day they want to be just like Happyslip Productions Here is this weeks effort One from last year And one they did when Flat Stanley came to visit. * They get me to hold the camera from time to time and act as the camera man for a little while, basically pushing the start and stop button on the software but on the whole this is them :-)
