Lilith's Andy

This morning, Lilith's step dad Andy came in to talk to us about making ads, docuamentaries and music videos. He brought in two cameras, a very modern one that shoots digitally, and an older film camera for us to have a look at. The older camera was very heavy, and it would take three people to work it, the film and the lenses on a film set. Andy showed us some of the ads he has directed, and talked to us about how the story you want to tell is the most important thing of all to think about because if you have a good story, your audience will want to watch what you have made. This gave us lots to think about as we come up with the ideas for our movie and dance about children's right to education. He also talked about how you have to work hard as a team when you are making movies, and you need to communicate clearly with everyone around you. You also have to be super organised. We thought these things sounded very like Balmoral Habits!
Thanks for coming and talking to us Andy, we had fun and learnt lots.
