Jenny will outline ways that you could use your skills and gain valuable work experience
here is some information to begin with;
Our Company Bright Sparks Science,
aims to promote fun science activities to primary school children across
Oxfordshire and Berkshire. We provide hands-on science activities at after
school clubs, scout groups, birthday parties, holiday workshops and other
community wide events. We have been running for nearly 2 years now and are
looking to develop our website to the next stage and include video footage of
our events and/or experiment demos.
I had the idea of
making video clips as a project proposal for a media student(s) as I think the
content will appeal to them. In the first instance, it would be great to
develop a range of short video clips that show the target audience how to do a
particular experiment - a demo tape if you like. These experiments will be
quick and simple so that children/ adults that visit our website can repeat
them in the safety of their own home! I am currently developing a DIY science
page that will feature instructions for the experiments and I think video clips
are a great way to add to this. We can bring all the science equipment to you
and be in front of the camera, demonstrating the activity, if your students
would like to do the filming? Of course, if there are some media /drama
students that want to have a go a presenting themselves, I am more than happy
to teach them.
The other type of video we would like
to develop, would be a promotional video clip, where we film one of our events
/ parties in action, live at the venue, with interviews, action shots etc. This
would be harder to organise as we would need parental permission for video
footage to be taken of the children involved and equipment would need to be
taken to the venue, but I'm sure we can find a willing candidate if we offer a
free party!
I am happy for
the student to quote our website in any interviews and use it as evidence of
portfolio work etc.
