Machinima is defined at the use of real-time 3D computer graphics rendering engines to create a cinematic production. This could be useful in education because it allow students to learn while watching state of the art 3D graphics. We could utilize this for a project on a book set in the Victorian era by taking clips from games set in that time such as “Fable” or “Lord of the Rings”.

Digital Story Telling is defined as practice of using computer-based tools to tell stories. This has educational applications because once again we can teach students to make them and become more familiar with the computer and it would be interesting to see.

Gaming more specifically video gaming is defined as is any electronic game that involves interaction with a user interface to generate visual feedback on a video device. Educational games have existed since gaming has with games such as “Oregon Trail” that taught students about the Oregon trail and by pretending to be a part of this time period helped them better understand the key concepts. We could utilize this for a project on a book set in the Victorian era by making a flash game based on a Victorian book that involves period facts and information that will allow students to get more in depth with the time period.

ReplyDeleteMachinima is the use of 3-Dimensional computer graphics to create a film/presentation. It can be used for educational purposes by allowing students to watch, and, more importantly, pay attention to, the 3-D characters/subjects that literally portray what is supposed to be understood. The idea for a presentation/film based on a Victorian Age novel would be to have an informative video on what and what not to do in society in the Victorian Age, using characters from the novel itself and how their actions affected the path of the story.

Digital Storytelling
Digital Storytelling is the use of digital tools for ordinary people to make films based on their own real-life stories. It can be used to educate students by letting the students create/watch each others digital short films based on the subjects being taught in the classroom. The idea for the Victorian Era novel would be that the students can create a film that reviews a single character's actions throughout the novel, and an argument to defend or disagree with whether or not the character's actions were right/wrong.

Gaming
Gaming, specifically video gaming, is the interaction of an interface to virtually control an object in a 3-D world. For educational purposes, the students can play a game that helps them understand the point of what is being discussed in the classroom, whether the teacher created it or if it's a game for a console. For the Victorian project, the students can create a video game that, again, follows one of the characters from the novel and which "levels" and "bosses" they had to overcome in order to gain the emotional closure that happens in the end of the story.

Idea: Gaming can be utilized by having students play Victorian Age games, too (though through another person’s interpretation) live a life similar to the characters in their Victorian Aged book. They could possibly critique the games as well.

1. Machinima is filmmaking within a real-time, 3D virtual environment, often using 3D video-game technologies. It is the convergence of filmmaking, animation and game development. Machinima is real-world filmmaking techniques applied within an interactive virtual space where characters and events can be either controlled by humans, scripts or artificial intelligence.
2. Machinima can be used educationally because it is one way for students to work with high-powered media production tools with relatively little cost. A student team could be a complete film crew, learning skills ranging from script writing, prop making, clothes design to filming, sound and editing. Students can also learn about camera work, such as how to use the alt-zoom camera, the SL interface camera, how to set up shots, including wide, medium, close and over shoulder shots etc, leading to a valuable knowledge of film, media and film grammar. Production skills which used to be only taught to professionals in the creative industries can now be accessed by students of all ages. Machinima can be an effective way of teaching language arts because everyone is fascinated by this medium, and enjoys and pays attention to the content. Training videos, written materials, and even personal in-servicing tend to be boring and are often ineffective, requiring frequent and expensive follow-up by both supplier and hospital educators. Avatars are compelling.
3. An idea for a project relating back to the Victorian era is to have a video in which the audience can see the importance of the Art movements of the Victorian era, which include Classicism, Neoclassicism, Romanticism, Impressionism, and Post-Impressionism. Classicism and Neoclassicism
