The May Creative Classroom Group Challenge! Be part of it with your students!!!
What is the Mannequin Challenge? It is a new online trend which sees people uploading
videos of them looking as though they've been frozen in time. Once the clip has been recorded, social media users are sharing the footage with the hashtag #MannequinChallenge. Teenagers from the USA started off the viral movement and most clips have the music by Rae Sremmurd’s Black Beatles featuring Gucci Mane playing in the background.
Many famous people followed this trend! — https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=az1QhQZOUbI
So, why not in eTwinning? At 9th May we celebrate Europe Day the annual
celebration of peace and unity in Europe In the Creative Group, we will celebrate this day with a video, created by you and your students! Deadline: 28th May 2017 Age of students participating: 4-19 years old Age of teachers: all ages are allowed J
Instructions: Grab a camera that can record video. A stabilizer will make everything look
better, but it’s not required. Gather your students who will participate in the video Choose one of the two themes for the challenge (described in the next slide) Get everyone to freeze in a fun position and hold still as best they can. It will be nice to have the eTwinning logo in your display. Hit record on your camera and have fun filming your scene. The video should not exceed 60 seconds!!! When your video is ready upload it in youtube or vimeo and complete the form: https://goo.gl/forms/G5IX4Ing181Wx8Ps2
Themes: Classroom theme: Ask your students to freeze while they are showing us what they do in the class during the day. A nice way to have classes around Europe. Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gtR5DaXIap8 2. Monument theme: Choose a famous monument/place of interest in your place and film your students there. It will be nice to have videos in European landmarks! Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RYtK-nzTxiQ 1.
Music: Music is another great addition to your video We will use the rap/techno and rock versions of
Europe’s anthem but as the purpose is to create a common video, all the videos sent to me should not have sound!!! You can of course create one with sound, if you want to have it for you! Music links: Rock version, Techno version, Hip Hop version
Additional info! In case you don’t want to have the faces of your
students in the video, you can become creative by using masks, try different shoots e.g. back, not closeups but please don’t blur the video analysis! Send the plain video without texts or graphics Send the video without music All participating students and teachers will receive a certificate of participation
The European Mannequin Challenge needs participants from all countries! Will we make it? Will our students accept this challenge? Will YOU?
