This resource is suitable for use with learners aged 15 and over and includes themes of public image, online personas, identity, comparisons and anxiety. Curriculum links include PHSE/RSE, English Language, Media Studies and Film Studies. This lesson will introduce learners to the theme of comparisons and how comparing ourselves to others can make us feel. By looking at the character of Kayla in the film Eighth Grade students will be encouraged to consider the potential negative impact of media images on body image and confidence. The selected scenes are included to explore feelings of anxiety that can be associated with comparing yourself to others. Young people will be introduced to aspects of performance and the use of sound to support their analysis of the protagonist. Learners will be asked to reflect on Kayla’s thoughts and feelings and offer alternative words for positive self-thought. The optional filmmaking activities build on the ideas of positive self-talk as well as the power of music to reflect mood and emotion in film.

Into Film has partnered with the Industry Trust for Intellectual Property Awareness and the Intellectual Property Office for the second year, to produce a new resource for Primary students. Intellectual property supports creativity, innovation, and has an important role to play in both the UK economy, and the creative industries. That is why we're committed to ensuring children and young people are fully aware of exactly what IP is, why it's important, and how it links to children's own creativity and filmmaking. This resource introduces key ideas of intellectual property and copyright, enabling learners to explore concepts of creativity and ownership in relation to film. By becoming creators themselves and exploring the different roles involved in making a film, the activities encourage children to understand and respect intellectual property and want to preserve it in the future.

To celebrate the release of Artemis Fowl on 12th June Into Film have partnered with Disney+ to create a package of free home learning resources for students aged 7-14. Inspired by the new release, our Artemis Fowl: Decoding Your World resources combine elements of English, maths and computing, and have been especially designed to support parents whose children are currently learning from home, and educators who are teaching and setting work remotely. Trolls, fairies and mythical creatures abound in Artemis Fowl, a fantastical film adapted from Eoin Colfer’s best-selling Artemis Fowl book series. Expect stunning special effects and exhilarating action as 12-year-old Artemis battles to rescue his kidnapped father from a fantasy realm. Artemis Fowl is streaming exclusively now on Disney+. This free resource includes a suite of materials that educators and parents can use to inspire students and explore key themes raised in the film. In Artemis Fowl: Decoding Your World, pupils will be introduced to Artemis through the film’s trailer and tasked with deciphering secret messages using Gnommish code from the film. Students will immerse themselves into the magical world of film and be inspired by a uniquely smart and adaptable lead character. There are four engaging home learning activities which include learning how to decipher coded messages; completing coding puzzles; character analysis through exploration of thoughts and actions and a creative writing competition. The activity sheets are supported by a home learning guide for educators and parents.
