The key aim of the week is to encourage children, teachers and parents to celebrate what makes us all different and to create environments where young people can be themselves free from bullying. Film has a vital role to play in inspiring change and encouraging us to see that even though we may just be one person– we can make all the difference. This is why we are proud to work in partnership with Into Film who provide schools with the resources they need to bring the subject of bullying to life through film.” Martha Evans, National Coordinator, Anti-Bullying Alliance.

Wonder Park: Imagination and Invention

(0)
Brought to you by Into Film and Paramount Pictures UK, Wonder Park: Imagination and Invention is a cross-curricular educational resource for use with learners aged 7 to 11. The resource challenges learners to become designers and engineers, planning and constructing theme park rides that not only demonstrate a scientific understanding of forces, but that also develop an understanding of environmental awareness and the impact of theme parks upon the ecosystem. Developed with support from the Royal Academy of Engineering, this resource combines curriculum skills from science, design and technology, maths, PSHE education, art and design and literacy/English. Pupils will develop engineering skills through the practical experience of ‘tinkering’, improving problem solving, developing resilience, drawing on a range of skills from different curricular areas, and being rewarded for curiosity and creativity. This exciting series of lessons also develops mindfulness skills and concludes with pupils constructing and showcasing their own theme park as a class, in addition to completing homework tasks that promote independence and ecological awareness.

Understanding Intellectual Property: See What You Did activity sheet

(0)
It takes an enormous amount of skill and hard work to make a film, and we believe that this creative process should be understood, valued and respected. We want to ensure that young people understand the connection between a finished film and the creators’ intellectual property, as well as be aware of the consequences of illegal downloading and video piracy. Watch the film See What You Did with your students before completing the activity sheet. What is intellectual property? Copyright and intellectual property (IP) sits at the foundation of all film production. It gives creators confidence that they own their work, and that they will be entitled to manage the distribution of the finished product. By striking a balance between the interests of creatives and the wider public, the IP system aims to foster an environment in which creativity and innovation can flourish. Here at Into Film, we support the collective efforts of the film industry and UK government to raise awareness of issues relating to copyright infringement. To achieve this, we are proud to be partnering with Cinema First, the Industry Trust for Intellectual Property (IP) Awareness, Intellectual Property Office and other cross-industry partners. We want to open up the world of film production to young people and give them opportunities to make their own films, whilst empowering them to make positive choices when accessing films online. Our suite of resources aim to educate young people to respect intellectual property in three ways: By encouraging them to become creators themselves, thereby understanding the inherent principles of copyright and the value of work Demonstrating our belief that the emotional impact and enjoyment derived from watching a film is a tangible reason to pay to see it legally Teaching them about the multifaceted nature of the filmmaking process, through projects such as Creating Movie Magic and Green Light to Opening Night For information on legally accessing films both at home and in the cinema, visit www.findanyfilm.com.

Black Star: The Power of Persuasive Speech

(2)
Being able to speak and write persuasively is an important cross-curricular skill. Film can bring the power of speech to life, through an examination of the situations where being able to effectively make yourself heard can effect change. This resource examines some great real-life orators from history through film, such as Martin Luther King, Nelson Mandela, Muhammed Ali and Lord Mansfield. It has clear links to the English curriculum for 11-16-year old students and the new GCSE English Language, where the effects of language can be considered, as well as the importance of delivery, gesture and tone. This resource also has cross-curricular relevance to drama, history and PSHE. Black Star is the British Film Institute’s autumn 2016 celebration of the range, versatility and power of black actors on film and TV taking place nationwide and we’re delighted to be complementing their season with a programme of relevant films that resonate with our audience of 5-19 year olds. Embracing the BFI’s direction of illuminating on-screen talent, the films selected for use in this resource feature contemporary British stars of black heritage as well as actors from the African diaspora and throughout film history that demonstrate a real range and depth of storytelling.
