Instead of only watching and playing, encourage kids to make, code, and craft their own content.By Christine Elgersma 1/24/2018
During a typical day, kids and teens check out YouTube, watch TV, play video games, scroll through social media feeds, and listen to music. Overall, they're passive consumers of the content they love -- which is fine. But with a little nudging -- and the right tools -- they can be using that time to build creative skills while sharing their stories, opinions, and...

Nigerian teens make sci-fi films with smartphonesIn a compound in Nigeria's north-western state of Kaduna, Godwin Josiah and his cousins hang green fabric on a gate as they get ready to shoot a movie scene. Using a smartphone and a tripod made from a broken microphone stand, they start. A blower generates air and buffets the actor who, in the film, will be flying through the air. These days, sci-fi films are made using sophisticated software. But the films created by these boys use everyday, recycled items and their works have catapulted the… READ MORE : http://www.africanews.com/2019/08/14/...

EducationalAppStore8 Best Video Editing Apps for KidsThese video editing apps engage kids to write narratives, create storyboards, organize productions, and collaborate with peers, all of these being concepts that kids are encouraged to learn in school.
It's not uncommon for kids to use tablets or phones to create videos, creating stunning videos that are compelling, well-produced, innovative, truly social, and/or something worth sharing with the world isn’t so easy. Making videos is a natural medium for this generation of students. Using video creation apps can really spice up the classroom and take the pressure off as a teacher. Having students make their own videos helps them to be in charge of their own learning. As an added bonus, using videos in the classroom helps school get just a little closer to a kid's real life.

Not only is the idea of telling stories with video really engaging for many kids, filmmaking is ripe with opportunities to connect to almost every academic subject area. As the technology to shoot and edit films becomes more ubiquitous, where is a teacher with no experience...
Anyone who grew up before the Digital Age remembers that filmmaking for kids was nothing more than a dream. Reel to reel film was a magical technology that required expensive equipment, projectors, film development. Maybe one day we would grow up to be Alfred Hitchcock, but, in the meantime, all we could do is pretend to make movies.Today, a ten year old can create multiple short films in one day using a smart device and editing apps. It is amazing! As parents, teachers, and homeschoolers...

The Filmmaker's Army: Crash Course Film Production #3
Who does what on a film set? And how many of them are there? What is HMU? What is a Scripty? In this episode of Crash Course Film Production, Lily gives us A BIG OVERVIEW on the Production Team. Who they are, who they report to, and why they're important.
Dissecting The Camera: Crash Course Film Production #4
Sometimes the most intimidating part of making a movie is that little box of concentrated technology called "The Camera." But, FEAR NOT! In this episode of Crash Course Film Production, Lily helps us dissect the basics of modern movie cameras so you can have an easier time getting started... hopefully!
Sound Production: Crash Course Film Production #5
Good sound is easy to miss because, usually, you're not paying attention to it. You're just simply, "in the story." But, sound recordists and engineers need to have a lot of technical know how as well as an instinct for story to help immerse us in the world of the film. In today's episode, Lily talks to us about Sound Production.
Producers: Crash Course Film Production #6
So... what do Producers even do? It's a hard question to answer because there are so many different kinds of producers on a movie. In this episode of Crash Course Film Production, Lily Gladstone talks us through the different kinds of producers and what they do in the movies.
The Director: Crash Course Film Production #7
So... what do Directors even do? That's not an easy question to answer but today Lily will do her best. Generally, directors are the driving creative force behind a movie, deciding what kind of cinematic world the story will take place in, how the performances will fit into that, and how the camera will capture that world. But, there's a lot more to discuss on this episode of Crash Course Film Production.

The Cinematographer: Crash Course Film Production #8
Who takes the pictures in a movie? Who is responsible for making a movie look good, or creating meaning with light and shadow, or make an action scene clear and thrilling? A lot of the time, that's the job of the cinematographer. In this episode of Crash Course Film Production, Lily Gladstone talks to us about the role of the Cinematographer, their tools, and what they do on set.
Designing the World of Film: Crash Course Film Production #9Literally, ‘mise-en-scene’ means “placing on stage.” But in film, mise-en-scene encompasses everything the camera is capturing. The artists and crafts-people who work in Production Design, Wardrobe, and Hair and Makeup are responsible for setting the stage of a film and making sure the characters fit on that stage. In this episode of Crash Course Film Production, Lily talks us through the roles involved in designing the world of a film.
Grip and Electric: Crash Course Film Production #10
It's time to look at some of the most under-sung heroes of the film world, Grip and Electric. Doing everything from setting up dollies and tripods, to helping the cinematographer shape the light with flags and silks, the Grips are there to make it work properly. And when working with electricity (as pretty much ever film set does) you need experienced technicians to make sure you are doing it safely and that you'll have the power you'll need. Which is where the Electric department comes in.
Special Effects: Crash Course Film Production #11
Chances are, when you hear the phrase "Special Effects," you may have images pop into your mind. The Hulk smashing a city, a lightsaber fight, or maybe an alien world. But effects can be much more subtle and have been around really since the beginning of filmmaking. In this episode of Crash Course Film Production, Lily Gladstone talks about the basics of special effects.

In 16 episodes, Craig Benzine will teach you about film history! This course is based on an introductory college level curriculum, with A History of Narrative Film by David A. Cook as its reference text. By the end of the course, you will be able to: * Understand that cinema is an illusion and how our brains make meaning out of still images placed side-by-side in rapid succession * Discuss the birth of the moving picture and the innovations that made sound and color possible * Explain how the studio system rose to power and then collapsed * Contextualize the many uses of film around the globe, including as propaganda
Movies are Magic: Crash Course Film History #1Well, they're not really "magic." Maybe "illusion" is a better way to say it. As we begin this journey of the history of cinema, we need to understand how movies trick our brains into even understanding that a movie is a movie. In this episode of Crash Course Film History, Craig takes us down the road of the very first inventors of motion pictures.
