Main method in the course is learning by doing what making of moving picture is like. And what
we means are worthwhile to achieve sought-after result. This is only one way just for example.
Within this time it is possible only to get touch for making short film but this is starting point to all AV-media producing.

What results we´ll get is important for learning and that depends mainly on groups own eagerness.
Some groups gets fine results, some groups demands more guiding.  

The class is divided to groups of 3 - 6 pupils. Three to six minutes lenght works are designed to produce by every group. Video films could be fictitious or documentaries. These short films are prepared to make possible filming them in very short time.

The leader of the course will afford feedbacks on the completed works. The aim is to get evaluations
from professional film makers, too. Works will be sent to festivals t.ex. "Minun Elokuvani" and "Kids
for kids" -festivals in Finland.

Timetable for course may be one or two days workshops or weekly lessons.
