Context:Students met with the two supervising teachers twice or three times a week over the lunch hour to work on videos. They basically run their own crews, and each team member had a specific role.  We will often supervise the editing process, offering assistance if it is needed. Once the film has been shot and edited, we show students how to create a soundtrack.  Our students use two programs to create music—Garage Band, and Movie Maestro.
