PROJECT MOVIE MAKING
One group made movie
The making of the movie was not the curriculum (or the agenda for facilitator)
Self-discovery was
It did not matter who was good or bad (strengths or weakness)
What mattered was what all the different possibilities for one to choose
GROUP REFLECTION done by them – they shared
Weakness – Facing camera, Laughter while acting, How to direct (as a director), Time management, Frustrated with re-shoots beyond 4 times, Communicating with the group,
Strengths – Act naturally, Experience of techniques, Problem Solving, Planning, Co-operative, Patient with others, Flexible and adjusting the time,
Suggestion – If everybody does all the jobs like editing, acting, camera holding (directing etc).
Process which helped – Clarity, Organised
Value addition of the group strength – Shooting plan and deciding location, Organising the shoot, Editing, Making props, Story, Script writing, Direction, Post production, Acting
The movie coming up soon…releasing after the break
Right in the first few years of life we get so used to being assessed by others that many of us lose the ability to assess ourselves, fairly. But whether it is praise or criticism – if the first line of assessment comes from me myself – then not only do I become more objective about my efforts and results, I am also able to take others’ views in a more balanced way.
