Future Deaf Hollywood Directors!

Every Friday after lunch, our Junior and Senior groups came together to work on stop-motion films. Students created characters and props out of modelling clay, and backdrops out of decorated paper.

At the end of each session everyone looked forward to watching each others’ films. It was exciting to watch different stories and learn to give and receive feedback. Students enjoyed sharing ideas on how to improve their films for next time.

Every week, everyone got slightly better with practice - characters got more refined and filming improved. At the at the end of the term, everyone was proud to share their films with whānau at the Arts Showcase. Ka pai to all Puia students for making extraordinary stop-motion films!
