Whittier - Elizabeth Mundt - 4 hours
It's been awhile since I last worked with Elizabeth and her class, so I was extremely nervous. I was nervous because I would be teaching. I wasn't confident that we would be able to finish the lesson in time, but I was prepared to come in the next day to finish it off. Introducing the students to something completely new, like animation - I thought, would be very difficult but the students got it right away. They were so excited to make the project and I was so happy to help them out with it. They were all so creative with creating a water cycle pixilation animation (stop motion animation but with live actors too)! I didn't even tell them to create costumes, but they did. It made me extremely happy to see this be as successful as it was.
There was so much teamwork within the groups, but one of the best moments for me was seeing how everyone all gathered together near the end of the planning and set up stage to help work on the set. It was incredible how much they were all willing to help. Overall, I felt very proud of the students work and all the effort they put into this project.
