We have produced this new resource on the film Around the World in 80 Days to complement the new Welsh National Literacy Framework for Primary schools, aimed a developing oracy, reading, and writing across the curriculum. Developed in conjunction with a leading literacy practitioner and the Welsh Government, these bilingual resources aim to empower teachers to increase literacy through film.

This resource will explore the five stages of the filmmaking process, and explains how you can best facilitate each stage for your group. The guide focuses on live-action narratives but the principles of planning, developing and shooting a film can be applied to animation and documentary. This guide also contains two additional chapters, Making Animations and Making Documentaries, which provide detailed support on how to facilitate for young people creating these specific types of films. Into Film provides opportunities for young people from a range of backgrounds to become involved in filmmaking activity. Our programmes allow them to tell their stories, recount their experiences, learn new skills and share their views through creative film projects. Through our See It, Make It programme, we are able to work with thousands of young people every year, giving them the opportunity to make their own short films alongside professional filmmakers, enabling them to take on the lead production roles including director, camera operator and editor, which supports the development of a range of transferable skills. Here, young people are not passive participants: they are supported and empowered to devise, develop, shoot and edit their own films.

This educational resource develops literacy skills by exploring how stories are told through film. Activities cover sound, setting, character, camera, colour and story, allowing pupils to develop skills of empathy and critical analysis by using film as a text. The short film used in this resource is Miss Todd from the Into Film Shorts: Primary 2014 Collection available exclusively from Into Film. Use the activities in this teachers’ pack and the supporting Literacy through film: Miss Todd PowerPoint presentation. You can work through the subsequent activities in order, or cherry-pick those that suit your class and your schedule.

Beautiful Boy: Relationships and Resilience consists of an assembly and in-class activity exploring the important and relevant themes of family relationships, addiction, resilience and optimism through the new film release,* Beautiful Boy*. Suitable for use in assemblies and PSHE/pastoral/ health and wellbeing classes with students aged 15-18, it has at its heart a powerful and relatable story. About Beautiful Boy Starring Academy Award® nominees Steve Carell (Foxcatcher, The Big Short) and Timothée Chalamet (Call Me by Your Name), Beautiful Boy is a deeply moving portrait of a family’s unwavering love and commitment to each other in the face of their son’s addiction and his attempts at recovery.

Andrew Onwubolu MBE has developed his craft of filmmaking throughout his career from a self-taught filmmaker uploading music videos and short films to YouTube to being awarded an MBE for services to Drama and Music. This resource comprises three lessons which introduce learners to Andrew Onwubolu, his filmmaking style and debate the role of an auteur in a film production. Download the full resource from the Into Film website. Lesson 1 - Guerilla Filmmaking and Autuer Theory The first lesson in this resource introduces or reacquaints young people studying GCSE or A level Film Studies with the concept of an auteur by analysing the filmmaking style and directorial motifs in Andrew Onwubolu’s film Blue Story and his earlier work Shiro’s Story. This will lead on to analysing the theory and features of auteurism in the films of Spike Lee, John Singleton and Alfred Hitchcock. Learners are then tasked with planning a crowdfunding campaign for a film production before planning and filming a revision film on the topic of auteurism in the style of one of the filmmakers discussed in this lesson. Lesson 2 - Discovering the Auteur This second lesson continues to develop learners’ understanding of auteurism by debating who has the most creative control on a film production before planning a presentation. The project for this lesson is to produce a film in the style of one of the auteurs studied in this lesson sequence, summarising what learners know about auteur theory to be used as a revision aid. Lesson 3 - Debating the Auteur The final lesson in this sequence is an opportunity for learners to practise writing an answer to an examination-style question which is scaffolded with opportunities for peer and class feedback before individuals produce their own essay.
