Part 1: About Windows Movie Maker
TechnoProducer begins with activities that help your students gain an
understanding of video production. To start, they
view sample movies. After watching each
video, they analyze the content of the story and the
production techniques used.
To prepare for the creation
of their own video production, students learn how to use the video
editing software Windows MovieMaker. Students import the
raw footage used to make the sample movies. They
edit the content by adding video
effects, applying transitions, and inserting text overlays.
Part 2: On the Set
Students team up to film their
video footage. To begin, they decide on a plot for their movie and
use a storyboard to organize their ideas. Afterwards,
they capture the action sequences using basic video recording
equipment. Throughout the lesson plans are helpful movie making
tips.
Storyboard handout used to
organize ideas.
Part 3: In the
Editing Room
Detailed lesson plans provide
instructions about how to edit the video footage. Students learn how
to split scenes to delete unwanted portions of a video clip.
Afterwards, they apply their knowledge to add effects,
transitions, and text.
Part 4: Opening
Night
Students put the finishing touches
on their movie. They learn how to add narration to explain each
exciting event. Once the movie is complete, it is exported from the
Windows Movie Maker program. This will allow the movie to be viewed
using Windows Media Player. The video is then shown on Opening
Night.
