All fifth grade students in South Brunswick will have the opportunity to create powerful messages about peacemaking through the use of film. Students will their creativity shine in an original video creation that inspires others to spread peace throughout their world. Students will work together with a film team to learn how to convey a message, film video, direct, produce and edit a movie. They will also learn that embedding special effects and music help to create a dramatic effect.

Both students and parents are encouraged to post comments for our filmmakers! Feel free to engage in discussion or ask questions about the films.
