ActionDog Ltd has developed an innovative workshop programme that introduces creative technology in a fun and inspiring way. We offer the chance to participate in the kind of music and video making normally reserved for industry professionals.
What happens
During the workshops, the participants compose, and record a track from scratch and make an accompanying video, with each student gaining hands-on experience with the technology involved. Using our mobile studios, we are able to deliver our projects at any location.
Our flexible programmes range from taster sessions of just three hours, to projects spanning the academic year. Groups can be of mixed ability, novices or experts.
Outcomes
Every participant has the opportunity to leave the project with a CD or DVD of project work. The project material can also be loaded into our groundbreaking software Cinematrix which encourages further engagement with the project. Children over the age of 9 who attend a project of 30 hours or more have the opportunity to gain the Nationally recognised ASDAN accreditation.
Themes
Our programmes integrate with the curriculum across a variety of subjects and depending on your requirements, we can tailor our workshops to facilitate the development of coursework or provide a range of extra-curricular activities.
ActionDog are happy to collaborate with teachers to develop projects, we have incorporated the teaching of literacy, numeracy, science and ICT skills and addressed issues concerned with citizenship, such as sexual health, bullying and friendship.
You may want to include us in a project to celebrate your school’s achievement. Our aim is also to develop soft skills such as confidence building, team work and having fun in a learning environment.
