Academy Awards Event in Photos!

On Friday, April 11th, Center School went Hollywood!!  The fifth graders dressed to impress and walked the red carpet, premiered their green screen iMovies and received their awards in front of an incredible crowd of parents!

A special thank you to Luke Szyluk from the fourth grade, who did an amazing job as the event's photographer!!

Student Created Movies Earn Academy Awards!!

The fifth graders did the job of hundreds of professionals as they wrote their own screenplays, became actors and actresses, and mastered chroma key green screen technology.

In post production, they performed the tedious work of editing as well as becoming sound designers, visual effect artists and title/credit creators.

What a way to showcase their immersion in research about a chosen animal's adaptations, habitat and diet.  And the Oscar goes to...
