Project mission - strive with your help...
Just imagine!
Our students need help because we are trying to form a film group in our school and any help is needed!
Why you should help us:
1) we have NO equipment
The whole film was created using amateur equipment, like an old mobile phone, a house lamp, some wooden sticks instead of a mobile stand, and scrap, cardboard material!
2) we are extremely inclusive
Our school is inclusive, we included ALL our students into the project, no matter the ability. So we had national minority (the Roma people), SEN students... all contributed and all worked together as one!
3) we are geographically isolated
We are located in a mountainous area far from any cities. There are almost no shops in our village, the infrastructure is poor and our students have ZERO opportunities to get the education like others (no museums, theatres, cinemas, no technology in school except a few computers...)
The only place for children to live through something is our small modest school!
4) we want to give our students a good start
We would like our students to have at least some opportunities to strive! And technology is a great start - it can open up the world for them and bridge the gaps that are, sometimes, too big for most.
So, see what we did with just enthusiasm and ZERO equipment. Imagine what we could do if we had the proper means!
Project Description
Project Description
The 7th grade students of the Tršće Primary School are interested in designing, planning and implementing creative projects, so they unanimously decided to participate in the Media Literacy Days Event.
Since they belong to a generation that spends a lot of time on social networks, they are aware of the dangers that threaten them, such as false information and propaganda messages that slowly but surely erode true values, including the celebration of holidays within the family circle, Easter in this case.
Along with the Easter workshops held at the school, the 7th graders decided to film an educational animated film. They were guided by art teacher Lovorka Gračanin Knežević in creating the scene and characters, Croatian language teacher Ingrid Žorž in writing the script, while computer science teachers Mirela Radošević and Ivana Brckan assisted in filming the scenes and sound effects.
The result is an animated film "How the Internet Stole Easter".
The film was created using STOP MOTION technique and filmed using students mobile phones, a house lamp for lightning and a set created out of recycled paper and cardboard. The script was read by students and filmed by students.
The language of the film is Croatian, with a mix of a unique dialect which is in fact listed as protected cultural property by the Minstry of culture.
For easier understanding of the film, the script and the story can be found here.
