Introduction THE WORLD AROUND US Introduction Celebrating cinema as a ’passport to the world’, this strand includes films from Iran, France, Africa, New Zealand, Tibet and Mongolia. This resource aims to give these films a context, and to challenge children to think about how the language of film is a universal language that helps us to understand and accept different cultures. The resource will address aspects of P.S.H.E. and Citizenship as well as Literacy, Science and Geography. ©Film Education 2006 1 THE WORLD AROUND US Aliens of the Deep 3D Running Time: 50 minutes Cert: U Suitable for: KS1/2 Literacy, Geography, Science Synopsis A team of young scientists and marine explorers guide us through a journey to some of the Earth's deepest, most extreme and unknown environments in search of the bizarre and alien creatures that live there. Looking at ecosystems, intensely hot oases and oversized sea- creatures, you are invited to consider these strange life forms and decide what they could represent. Film Facts The director of Aliens of the Deep, James Cameron, directed the box office smash, Titanic in 1997. In this documentary, he worked with a team of NASA scientists to explore the Mid-Ocean Ridge, a submerged chain of mountains that band the Earth and are home to some of the planet's most unusual life forms.

It gives an insight into life behind the cloistered walls of the Chokling Monastery. Two young exiled Tibetan refugees arrive at the monastery/boarding school. Soccer enthusiast Orgyen soon arouses a soccer fever amongst students. During the 1998 World Cup, Orgyen and several companions sneak out of the monastery by night and make their way to a shop in the local town where they can watch the matches. They are punished for this, while the head of the monastery faces difficulty in bringing Buddhism into modernity. Film Facts The Cup is the first film ever produced by the tiny Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan. It is based on a true story. The soccer games featured in the movie are from the 1998 World Cup in France.

The filmmakers have captured images of species that have never been seen before, all in their natural habitats. The film emphasises the diversity of the planet and the importance of furthering our understanding and preservation of it for the future. Film Facts The documentary Deep Blue is based on the BBC series ‘Blue Planet’ which was aired in 2001. Over twelve million people watched the series when it first aired in the UK. It has since been screened in over fifty countries. The underwater photography set new standards, both for its beauty and for never-before- photographed sequences of ocean life. Recently discovered species were shown for the first time, and behaviour that had hitherto never been witnessed was captured on film. Pre-viewing activities 1. Find out how much of the Earth is covered in ocean. 2. Imagine a species of ocean creature that has never been seen before. What will it look like? Draw a picture. Post-viewing activities 1. What can you do to help preserve our oceans for future generations? 2.

Whilst you are describing it, think about the five senses: sight, sound, touch, taste and smell. ©Film Education 2006 6 THE WORLD AROUND US Deep Sea 3D Running Time: 50 minutes Cert: PG Suitable for: KS1/2 Literacy, Science, Geography Website: www.imax.com/deepsea/ Synopsis This undersea adventure offers up-close exploration of the planet’s deepest unknown oceans. Introducing some of the most strange and unusual beings on the planet, filmgoers will glide underwater with exotic, dangerous and colourful creatures with explanations offered about this exciting underworld. Issues such as survival, dependency and relationships are looked at as each animal relies on another in order for all of them to thrive. Film Facts The fact that this is a 3D IMAX® film means that the audience can get a real insight into the mysterious world of the deep sea. Whilst watching through your 3D specs, you experience waves rushing towards you and the feeling of being momentarily engulfed in the ocean; a jellyfish field appearing to fill the whole theatre; a shark powering towards you and predators pouncing from behind rocks and devouring their prey.

    Edinburgh Graveyards Project: Documentary Survey For Canongate Kirkyard --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Canongate 1.1. Background Canongate’s close proximity to the Palace of Holyroodhouse, which is situated at the eastern end of Canongate Burgh, has been influential on both the fortunes of the Burgh and the establishment of Canongate Kirk. In 1687, King James VII declared that the Abbey Church of Holyroodhouse was to be used as the chapel for the re-established Order of the Thistle and for the performance of Catholic rites when the Royal Court was in residence at Holyrood. The nave of this chapel had been used by the Burgh of Canongate as a place of Protestant worship since the Reformation in the mid sixteenth century, but with the removal of access to the Abbey Church to practise their faith, the parishioners of Canongate were forced to find an alternative venue in which to worship. Fortunately, some 40 years before this edict by James VII, funds had been bequeathed to the inhabitants of Canongate to erect a church in the Burgh - and these funds had never been spent. This money was therefore used to build Canongate Kirk and a Kirkyard was laid out within its grounds shortly after building work commenced in 1688. 1 Development It has been ruminated whether interments may have occurred on this site before the construction of the Kirk or the landscaping of the Kirkyard2 as all burial rights within the church had been removed from the parishioners of the Canongate in the 1670s, when the Abbey Church had became the chapel of the King.3 The earliest known plan of the Kirkyard dates to 1765 (Figure 1), and depicts a rectilinear area on the northern side of Canongate burgh with arboreal planting 1 John Gifford et al., Edinburgh, The Buildings of Scotland: Pevsner Architectural Guides (London : Penguin, 1991).

  • The Uses of Animation 1
    The Uses of Animation 1 1 The Uses of Animation ANIMATION Animation is the process of making the illusion of motion and change by means of the rapid display of a sequence of static images that minimally differ from each other. The illusion—as in motion pictures in general—is thought to rely on the phi phenomenon. Animators are artists who specialize in the creation of animation. Animation can be recorded with either analogue media, a flip book, motion picture film, video tape,digital media, including formats with animated GIF, Flash animation and digital video. To display animation, a digital camera, computer, or projector are used along with new technologies that are produced. Animation creation methods include the traditional animation creation method and those involving stop motion animation of two and three-dimensional objects, paper cutouts, puppets and clay figures. Images are displayed in a rapid succession, usually 24, 25, 30, or 60 frames per second. THE MOST COMMON USES OF ANIMATION Cartoons The most common use of animation, and perhaps the origin of it, is cartoons. Cartoons appear all the time on television and the cinema and can be used for entertainment, advertising, 2 Aspects of Animation: Steps to Learn Animated Cartoons presentations and many more applications that are only limited by the imagination of the designer. The most important factor about making cartoons on a computer is reusability and flexibility. The system that will actually do the animation needs to be such that all the actions that are going to be performed can be repeated easily, without much fuss from the side of the animator.

  • Greyfriars Bobby Differentiated Reading
    Greyfriars Bobby John Gray, known as Jock, lived in Edinburgh around 1850. He was a nightwatchman with the Edinburgh City Police. Jock had a little Skye Terrier to keep him company as he went on his rounds through the streets at night. He called his watchdog Bobby. Jock became ill and died on the 15th February, 1858. He was buried in Greyfriars Kirkyard in Edinburgh. People living near the Kirkyard saw that Bobby refused to leave his master’s grave. The keeper of Greyfriars tried on many occasions to send Bobby away. In the end, he gave up and, it is said, he made a shelter for Bobby at the side of Jock’s grave. The story of the faithful dog spread throughout Edinburgh. It is reported that every day, people would gather at the Kirkyard waiting for Bobby to leave the grave and go to the same inn that he had gone to with his master, where he was given something to eat. In 1867, a new law was passed that said all dogs should be licensed in the city or they would be destroyed. The Lord Provost of Edinburgh decided to pay for Bobby’s licence and presented him with a collar. The collar can be seen today at the Museum of Edinburgh alongside Bobby’s feeding bowl. The people of Edinburgh took good care of Bobby, but still he remained loyal to his master. For fourteen years, this faithful dog kept watch and guard over his master’s grave until he himself died in 1872. Bobby was buried close to his master in Greyfriars Kirkyard and his headstone reads Greyfriars Bobby - died 14th January 1872 - aged 16 years - Let his loyalty and devotion be a lesson to us all.

"Chariots Of Fire" 1 Looking over the West Sands, St. Andrews, Fife, as featured in the film "Chariots Of Fire" (1981). It is on the beach pictured here that the British Olympic Running team are seen training in preparation for the 1924 Olympics in Paris. It is an example where the Scottish landscape is used to realise a place that is elsewhere- the scene is actually meant to be Broadstairs in Kent. "Chariots Of Fire" is the true story of two British track athletes competing in the 1924 Olympic Games. Eric Liddell is a devout Scottish missionary who runs for God whilst Harold Abrahams is a Jewish student who runs for fame and to escape prejudice for his religious beliefs. Extensive use of Scottish locations were used in the making of the film. The 1981 film, "Chariots of Fire" was directed by Hugh Hudson. It starred Ben Cross as Harold Abrahams and Ian Charleson as Eric Liddell. It was a critical and box office. The opening and closing scenes of the runners on the beach at St. Andrews have become an iconic movie moment, helped by the triumphal background music by Vangelis. ©Neil Sinclair "Gregory's Girl" Looking over a football pitch to Abronhill High School, Cumbernauld, North Lanarkshire, as featured in the film, "Gregory's Girl" (1981).
