Term One Week Six

Kia ora. It's week six.  We are almost half-way there.  You have had a busy term already with settling back into school and bike safety.  You have lots more experiences coming up too!  This week, we are going to continue with writing scripts for our storyboards - we are doing this a little bit backwards, as usually you would work from the script to the storyboard, but your learning and knowledge at the start of this term were film techniques, so the storyboard was a natural place to begin.  When you are writing a script, you can think of it as an essay - you need to introduce your content to your reader, detail your information in separate paragraphs and then conclude your script with an overall summary and leave your audience with something to think about.  Your bike safety storyboard is like the paragraphs - so as well as detailing voice overs and dialogue from your storyboard, think about the underlying information you want your viewer to have as well.  Detail from this information is what appears in the visuals and diagetics/non-diegetics in your scene.
