This event will feature presentations by participants in two projects
from the DARE (Digital Arts Research Education) Collaborative at the
Institute of Education (IOE), working with partners in the British
Film Institute (BFI) and at London's Globe Theatre.
The first project was jointly organised by the BFI and the
Cinematheque Francaise in Paris and explored the intervention of the
"real" in fiction. This project also produced two "machinima" films
made by year 7 students in Cambridge. These are 3D animations made
using the software Moviestorm, and are fantasy sci fi and horror
stories.
In the second project a partnership was formed between Shakespeare's
Globe and Immersive Education, who produced the game-authoring
software, Missionmaker. Students created games which drew on a key
scene from Macbeth, involving them in a rich digital and cultural
experience.
Students from the schools will present the work, alongside their
teachers, and they will be happy to discuss the work with the
audience.
From London, students from the London Nautical School will attend with
their teacher Chris Waugh and researcher/evaluator, Michelle Cannon.
From Cambridge there will be students from Parkside Federation with
their teacher, James Durran. The event will be hosted by Mark Reid
from BFI Education, and, from the IOE, Andrew Burn and John Potter.
