Into Film: Learning Resources
Into Film puts film at the heart of children and young people's education, helping to support their academic, cultural, and social development. They asked us to create a series of animations to help explain the benefits of various learning resources available to teachers on their learning platform.
Role On The Wall.
We designed a set of characters based on a class of school children that complimented Into Film’s branding.
3Cs & 3Ss.
A big factor to take into account when making these videos was to ensure we incorporated relevant diversity so that the scenarios being depicted reflected modern day classrooms.
Axis Of Emotion.
A lot of the assets we created for this series are now used by Into Film across all the media they create from online to print.
Sound On Vision Off.
Each animation takes one of the learning resources, briefly explains how it works and what its benefits to students are.
The animations had to appeal to students aged 8-11 as well as their teachers so we developed fun but stylish visuals to communicate the message. Each animation begins with a clip from a film, we borrow iconic imagery from a range of genres from Sci-fi to Westerns and Fairy Tales. These little sections were a lot of fun and set the tone for the rest of the videos.
What Makes A Great Storyboard.
We also created two additional films to help explain key parts of the filmmaking process to students. Tips and advice are dispensed to help the next generation of creatives learn and develop their own love of film.
5 Step Filmmaking.
The animations offer a step by step guide to making your first film. To compliment the series students are encouraged to form groups and create their own films. I wish we had done this sort of thing at my school!
