For my movie project I decided to do it on Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. Students completed a journal entry on the board where they wrote a description of a new character for the Harry Potter series. Then I did a Read-a-Loud from the book and read them the descriptions of Aunt Marge and the dementors. Then we viewed how the dementors were made from the video. The students really liked how the animators used the words from the book to make the character. After the video, I had the students look back at their journals and use Flash to create their character. It took them about two days to get through the assignment.
For the most part, they enjoyed creating their new characters.
