The unique feeling about all this is what do I have to do to convince these kids that I need them to do these films to have a successful show. If there aren't any films, there isn't a film festival. That would make me sad.
The kids have three months to complete these movies. The process can be overwhelming, but if they take their time through the process and not wait until the last minute, the movies will be good and come out with good quality. I am staying after school every Tuesday, starting next Tuesday until the films are due in April, to help out any groups that need any help as their films come together.
Couple of other notes, I want to start a Remind, text messages service for all students/parents that want to sign up for these notices so that I can get information to you all faster. Get the instructions to sign up for the Remind notifications here.
I also will give out the rubric to all groups on Thursday, so that you know how you will be judged. Lots are going to happen in the next couple months! I will be around to ask about all the progress of all the groups. Keep me updated and remain steady in your progress!
