Our pupils were thrown into a
full day’s work going through and editing the photographs taken at the National
Botanic Gardens of Wales. The pupils then started to sort them into three
categories focusing on three areas within the Gardens; The Ice House, The
Tropical House, The Great Dome.
The next task was to edit the
photographs using photoshop to ensure that no humans appeared in their shots.
They then put their photographs into the most effective order and then created
a slideshow.
One group had the opportunity
to write a script for a voiceover to go with the slideshows. Again, this
focused on the three selected areas. They then had to read their voiceovers
into a microphone, which proved to be quite a nerve wrecking experience.
Groups also had a bonus
activity in the afternoon as they went into the hall to practice drumming with
Matt.
The final activity was to
edit their voiceovers, mixing them with the sounds they recorded at the Botanic
Gardens, adding effects.
Although it was sad to see
the project come to an end we all thoroughly enjoyed themselves and are now looking
forward to the launch in a few weeks’ time.
