Proposal summary

Purpose & objective

The purpose of this session is to demonstrate how Instagram can be an excellent tool to motivate and express young video producers to tell a story and applying the grammar rules to write a script and a storyboard.
Also, another tool used to increase creativity is Minecraft, where students develop the stage of their story and invite others to help them in the narrative of the dialogue of their characters, recording the screen to edit the video later in iMovie.
In the Spanish course, the students learn to write creative narratives base on United Nations sustainable development goals such as quality education, no poverty ,live below water, climate action, etc. using different multimedia media to express their ideas.
Help your students to become passionate about writing, and also motivate them to transcend and influence positively others through writing using Instagram filters, keynotes animations, and iMovie effects.

Objectives:
1. Participants will recognize how to use filters on Instagram and record a mini clip.
2. Participants will learn to use mincraft to create 3D constructions and record a video..
3. Participants will learn how to integrate sequence of mini clips to create a full video of a story
4. Participants will use Clips, Keynote, GarageBand or iMovie to integrate sound effects, in their stories.
