Testimonial

"Having the opportunity to work with AFLCT has been truly beneficial; they've provided unique experiences that have positively impacted our students. Their professional artists are strong role-models who encouraged students to take risks, find their voices, and be confident young people. They assisted in the process of inspiring our students to discover their individual identities and be able to self-assuredly express and share their ideas and opinions."

Description

EARTHTIME 60 second video project focuses on just that: making a 60-second video about the earth we live on. The program begins with a video depicting impactful images featuring artworks about climate change and the environment, followed by a basic
tutorial on shooting, and editing videos on Smartphones, tablets, and Imovie.

Through guided instruction, students go outside (school/home perimeter) to shoot a 60-second video of their home environment. Student directive: shoot the earth, sky, sea, land, buildings, sidewalks, grass, animals, etc. Students edit their videos and share with classmates. The clips can be edited together as a class project.

Objectives

The aim of this workshop is to engage students in using technology to make a video featuring the environment they live in. The emphasis for this project is observation, exploration, and process, not a finished product. The goal is to inspire students to look carefully at the local place they live and use this video project as a springboard for conversations about the earth, environment, science, urban planning, nature, food, gardens, and climate change.
