The Peru Elementary Media Club consists of a group of dedicated students who are gaining experience in valuable creative media skills such as videography, photography, broadcast media and film-making.

I am happy to present the films in our 2nd annual Elementary Media Club Film Festival. This year's production was a real feat as the majority of the project was completed remotely. Due to covid protocols and having to initially work remotely the students elected to base their short films in the world of Minecraft. They wrote their own scripts in industry standard screenplay format, produced storyboards, acted out their scenes in Minecraft and then provided narration for their characters. I am exceedingly proud of their efforts and look forward to sharing them with you. You can watch the film separately or you can watch the festival in its entirety which includes an introduction from me highlighting the process. Thank you for taking the time to view the hard work of these wonderful students.
