::Integrating Digital Video into Instruction (3/2/2009)
-
When audiences go to see a film in the theatre, they seldom realize how much research goes into the making of the movie. In the formative stages, writers, directors and producers research story ideas that relate to the idea they are imagining. They interview people, read books, clip magazine articles, scan the Web, draw upon personal experiences and look to uncover information from anywhere they can, knowing that key secrets can be revealed in the least likely of places. Once an idea is decided upon, the filmmakers research in order to get a better understanding of the context and content of the story.

s information exponentially explodes all around us, the ability to effectively mine that information also increases. If we are to prepare students to make sense of all that information, then familiarization with good research skills -knowing where to find things, how to find things, who to ask, how to collect it and how to organize it -becomes another important skill developed by filmmaking.
This is why filmmaking with digital video in the classroom is both exciting and important. - 1 more annotations...
