Why this why now
Having previously created and edited digital images and animations, pupils now progress to creating videos by following a structured production process. This unit introduces them to topic-based language and develops their skills in capturing, editing, and manipulating moving images. Learning this now allows pupils to combine composition skills with sequencing and storytelling, preparing them for more advanced multimedia projects where video will be integrated with other digital elements.
Prior knowledge requirements
- Pupils recognise that digital devices can be used to capture inputs
- Pupils understand that media artefacts can be manipulated for a given purpose
- Pupils can find, store and amend suitable digital artefacts.
- Pupils understand how text, images and sound can be combined to effectively convey information.
