Sugar & Spice, Water & Ice - Mount St. Michael's P.S.

This is a perfect example of how an animated film project can involve what children are learning in the classroom and be useful outside the classroom as well.
This film utilized the P6 Science curriculum about the water cycle and was also meant to reflect the idea of community as it was funded by a local community group for a Christmas window display. This played on a loop in a Randalstown electrical shop during the Christmas switch-on festivities for all to see.

Playing With Fire - Two Full Day Workshops


It was a challenge to complete a short film in two days. This workshop was run by An Creagán Visitor Centre in County Tyrone. The storyboard and all the art was created on the first day and the animation was filmed and voices recorded and edited on the second day by the ten dedicated participants aged 12-19. The sound effects, music and titles were added on a third day by Mike from Let's Animate!. Just think what we could have done in three days!
