In our first term at Stage & Screen Acting Classes, we have been making short films. We talked about what we'd like them to be about and then started to work on developing their characters. Although I wrote the scripts many of the scenes and ideas came from the students themselves.
The younger children wanted to do a film about witches and wizards, and the teenagers chose to do a film about homeless/runaway teens.
Here's a little preview of the beginning of the short film the teenagers made - Streetlife

In our film about witches and wizards we had floating broomsticks, flying, leviatating feathers, and making spells in a cauldron. We even turned Annabel into a Unicorn! Lots of fun went into making the films, and we finished the term off with a red carpet style film premiere to watch them on the big screen. Here's our bloopers reel to give you more of a feel for the classes.
Our red carpet style film premiere evening was held at Davenham Theatre and a great night was had by all. We had a giant Oscar, popcorn, fun photo booth props, snacks and family and friends got to see everyone up on the big screen!
Next term we'll be ending the term with shows, but the classes will still have a mix of stage and screen acting in them.
Any filmed work we do is sent to you along with, for the younger ones, an email of what we did and how they're getting on in class.
Here's some photos from our premiere evening -
