A selection of Team 5 students were lucky enough to experience Waitangi during Term 3.
Before the trip, students researched the signing of the Treaty of Waitangi. They brainstormed ideas of what they wanted to film while up in the Bay of Islands and it was decided to create a mini-documentary about the signing of the Treaty.
One of the highlights for our students was the fact that they got to walk in the footsteps of many of our ancestors. It was an amazing experience for them indeed!
Many hours were spent writing scripts, choosing actors, collecting costumes, thinking about film shots, shooting, editing, creating voice-overs etc. This is their entry for the Manaiakalani Film Festival 2013. Introducing... 'Waitangi'
A special thanks to Mrs Lagitupu who organised students to put this movie together.
Kia ora 'Waitangi' student,
ReplyDeleteYour was interesting an fun to watch. I like that you showed the message clearly with good features. My favourite part was when the english men decided to have an agreement with the 'maaaooorriii's' haha. Did you enjoy filming and progressing the movie? Keep it up.
A copy with editing though.

ReplyDeleteIt me Eleva I really like it keep up the great work and do not give up.
I am new to New Zealand and I am reading a book, The Story of a Treaty, by Claudia Orange. Your movie made the story come to life. I liked your factual content and that you filmed on location. My favorite shots were the ones where someone was filming from above the trees and the one in the dining room where the signing of the Treaty was being discussed over tea. I think you had a silent partner who wasn't eating, drinking, or talking. Your team did some nice work!
ReplyDeleteHello, you made a beautiful movie.
ReplyDeleteHey Room 19

ReplyDeleteHello room 19,
ReplyDeleteWatching your movie was so interesting. The part I enjoyed watching about movie was when the England and New Zealand came to peace. What do you think was the hardest part creating your movie?
Excellent movie! I am beginning to learn about the Treaty of Waitangi and this video was really informative and easy to understand!
ReplyDeleteA group of us are coming to Pt England School from Pacific University in Oregon in May of this year to work in the classrooms. To get ready for our trip, we have been reading about the Treaty of Waitangi. We found your video very helpful in understanding the historical signficance of this treaty. We were also really impressed with the quality of your video. We look forward to coming in May to Pt England School in person!
