Children photographed using a digital camera and images made were discussed in the class. Sound and observation of sounds in environment was done. Children were given audio recorders to capture sound in ambience. Importance of sound in films was discussed.
In the month of September 2015, 247 children attended the lab. Concepts of storytelling and storyboarding were discussed. Children wrote stories in groups. They were shared with rest of the class and reviewed by peers. Images were created by children to depict their respective stories.
In the month of October 2015, 39 children attended the lab. Children used audio recorder to record sound and transfer them on to a computer.
