Project Title

Stop Motion

Project Description

For the stop-motion project students were asked to select and research an important event from the Great Depression or a program from the New Deal and create a film that teaches about their event or program. The video was to be five minutes in length, use a scale model of your event to accurately show the what occurred, and utilize at least 2 film techniques (stop motion, acting on a green screen, etc) to convey the events or program. Beyond the history components, the project challenges students to work on a large project in teams of 12, with work groups taking care of individual tasks.
