One of the most popular classes that I have the privilege to teach is my Storytelling class. This class was originally called Novels and Film. I chose to change the name because the students in the class explore how storytelling has evolved from cave painting to the robust films we have today.
My hope with this new equipment such as a video camera and green screen lighting kit ,is to give students the opportunity to create and share their own stories through film. The class has evolved to students taking it more than once just to have the chance to explore film more in-depth. With this equipment, I foresee expanding the course into different media based electives that give students the hands-on experience of film-making and production.
