Movie Making: The Final Day!
We wrapped up editing today! After a grueling day of chopping up and throwing Chroma and Green Screen Keys on our raw footage, we got to add the elements of a film that bring out the magic! We added everything from wand dueling noises to car crashes to even a film score! One group finished a short film and the other a movie trailer. Check them out...

Today is the 3rd day of movie making. We had two groups finish principle photography for their movies and are now ready to start editing. One other group is about to start filming in our PNG Studio B location!
With today, next Thursday and the Thursday after to work on our movies odds are pretty good that we might end up with some pretty great videos!

TinkerCAD: Special Edition
We had a very special TinkerCAD class today with the Mr. Fryer's Summer Academy students. The kids learned the basics of TinkerCAD and created their very own name plate/key chain! We'll get the 3D printers in the Next Gen Lab running and start printing out all of their cool creations for them to pick up the next time they're in the library!

Movie Making: Day 2!
While everyone started finishing up their scripts, we went ahead and started shooting scenes for the group that were already done! All of the planning that went into the last day is coming in handy; we're using our storyboards and scripts to shoot as efficiently as possible. We are about 50% shooting two movies and throughout the next two classes we'll wrap up shooting and prepare for the grueling editing process...

Movie Making - Day One!
Today was the first day of movie making here at Project Next Generation! It's always tough to stare at a blank page with endless possibilities and try to figure out what kind of story to tell, but the faster we write a script and cast our movie, the faster we can get to shooting scenes and editing footage!
