Film Review Podcasts

notreblog — Mon, 23 Jul 2007 13:06:37 +0000

Our Y8 students have been creating their own film reviews (see lesson plans).

They started by researching the latest films on the BBC Film Review Archive. They then shared their ideas on the films they liked by contributing comments to posts on notreblog.
Adventure Reviews| Animation Reviews| Comedy Reviews | Fantasy/Sci-Fi Reviews
They then completed an online survey and analysed the csv file in a database to see what film other students reccomend.
Finally they used Audacity to create their own film review podcasts with podsafe soundtracks from www.garageband.com

Example Podcasts
You can either listen to a streamed version of the podcasts below, or download the files by clicking on the titles.
