Linguafest Film Competition
Oren Thaler – Hebrew Teacher – Year 8 Tutor
Emanuel students enter State film competition for second languages
Year 8 and Year 6 Hebrew classes have created films for the Linguafest film competition.
This is a state-wide competition for students learning a second language. Around a hundred films entered the competition in languages ranging from German and French to Indonesian and Chinese. This year the theme of the competition was Mystery, and a ticket had to appear in the film.
Here are a few comments made by the students about the film:
To make the film we had to decide on a story which fits the theme, then we had to turn it to a script and learn our lines in Hebrew. We then had to find locations and film it. The hardest part was to edit and cut down the scenes to 2:00 minutes.
Acting and learning the lines in Hebrew was pretty hard. We sometimes had to film a scene ten times because of bad pronunciation or laughing.
