After my post this morning for www.xtranormal.com, Diane McCarthy (8th grade science) and Tracey Paul (5th grade Language Arts) shared their first productions.  I am thrilled with such a rapid response!

Please review their films and share your feedback.  I was thinking maybe we ought to plan a film festival for the spring- anyone  interested?

Ever want to make lego-type people talk?  Want to make your own movie but dislike recording?  A friend sent me a link to a new free movie making site- www.xtranormal.com

You can select your characters, background, music, camera angles- and then just type in the dialogue!  Please view my weekend production - and when you make your own , please share it with me!  (Warning- this can become addictive!)
