ESL: Making a Movie (12) — This class offers an opportunity to practice all the language skills - speaking, listening, writing and reading - while making a class movie. In addition, we will learn the basics of using movie editing software and, if we want, make a web site for our film. Our movie will be about the Cherokee Indians, the people who were living in the Atlanta area when the colonial Europeans arrived. We will start the class by reading about the Cherokee to help us learn the information we will need. Then we will watch parts of some documentary movies to help us plan our film and to learn some film techniques; this activity will develop the techniques and go out to do some preliminary interivews on campus, thus developing speaking skills. For the last stage of the project, we'll visit New Echota, the old Cherokee capital.
