Mark Viveash

47 Studios & Productions Ltd

South Wales based audio and visual production company who specialises in: education, short film, music recording, advertisement.

47 studios & productions has produced an independent course for children that allows schools to access educational opportunities in the creative arts industry for their pupils. The course is delivered independently by Mark and ensures the children gain knowledge and practical skills in the Film and Media Sector.

We also offer filming and audio recording solutions for schools who need to capture a specific topic or event or production completed by the school.

The 6 week course takes children on a learning journey around every aspect of film making. Mark teaches the children how cameras work, how to use lighting and sound, story boarding leading into scriptwriting  as well as basic editing skills. The result is a short film that the children create and produce themselves. The course is aimed at key stage 2 children but can be adapted for key stage 1 or key stage 3.

The course works with the 6 areas of learning and experience  within the  Welsh curriculum and the digital competency framework.

 

Expressive Arts which covers drama film and digital media. The course enables children to explore a variety of creative techniques materials and processes whilst combining their ideas and skills.

Health and wellbeing, which covers decision making, resilience and empathy. The course puts every decision in the children’s hands and teaches them resilience when things go wrong.

Languages literacy and communication. The course needs children to communicate with each other as part of a team to listen to each other and to understand that literature fires imagination and inspires creativity.

Maths and numeracy. The course covers basic use of the numbers system, multiplication in relation to shutter speeds and angles and position.

Science and technology. The course covers designing and making pinhole cameras, investigating through methods of enquiry, bouncing light and diffusion.

The course allows children to develop the Integral skills within the 4 purposes of the Welsh curriculum. 

Creativity and innovation, 

Critical thinking and problem solving,

Personal effectiveness,

Planning and organising 

 

We have successfully run the course in schools across south Wales and Herefordshire with some fantastic feedback.

What an amazing experience the children in school had thanks to Mark and his film project. The children loved Mark coming in and could not wait for the next week to arrive to do the next session. The project hits so many areas of the curriculum, from light in Science, playscripts in Literacy to designing and making pin hole cameras and bounce boards in Design and Technology. The way that Mark allowed and encouraged the children to set the scenes up, guiding them along the way, really gave the children the ownership of their final film. The sense of achievement the children got from the whole process, from coming up with their story, breaking it down into scenes, visualising how those scenes would be filmed and then actually doing all of the lighting, sound, acting and camera work was so fulfilling to see. Watching them watch their own film at the end was brilliant. I would definitely recommend to any school to get Mark in for this project...the benefits to the children are huge! I will be getting him in again for another project very soon!!” Jamie Gittins KINGS CAPLE ACADEMY HEREFORDSHIRE.

PUPIL FEEDBACK ( CROSS ASH SCHOOL YR 6 ) MONMOUTHSHIRE 

“I really enjoyed the practical aspect of the lesson  I really like that you do theory-based tasks first, followed by the practical after break.” 

“I like the way you do quick ‘catch ups’ after break to revisit anything that we may have forgotten. It’s nice to reflect and remind ourselves.”

“You interact well with us and I feel you help me a lot with learning new things. “
