Tui's Garden - The Movie Set...

We made a movie called Tui's Garden.  This is the movie set.  We filmed the movie in our classroom.

We had to design the backdrops.  I designed the character Praven and he was from Singapore.  I wrote the story with Summer and I drew Mrs Camilla.  I think she looked really good in the movie.  Aogan was the voice for Mrs Camilla. 

Tui's Garden - Behind the Scenes

We made honeybees for the movie because it was a movie about honeybees.

It took a long time to make the movie.  

The honeybees look like they are flying because they are on string and someone is holding them with their hands.  They have a lot of stripes and they have wings.

We all made the fence, the puppets and all the clothes.  Summer designed most of the puppets and their clothes.  

We made some flowers.  All of the Year 3 children worked together to make Tui's Garden.  The Year 4's were working on Honeybee News and the How Bizarre while we made our movie.  

We all worked very hard on the movie.  Our favourite parts were puppeteering the little honeybees and drawing the backdrops.

Tui's Garden - Behind the Scenes

We made the movie because we love honeybees.  We wanted to tell people to plant for bees.

I used the camera to video the movie and I did some puppeteering.  I coloured in lots of clothes and coloured in some puppets.

I made a house for the backdrop.

The best part was filming because it was a very important job.

Tui's Garden - Working out the set...

This is how we worked out the set for Tui's Garden.  We used boxes and paper to work out different street views.

Tui's Garden - The Storyboard

After writing the script we then had to turn this into a storyboard.  We all worked together to think of what shots we could use.  After this we worked out what artworks we needed to create.
