Naming Ghosts

Created as part of an assignment within Dr. Cobb's PhD studies at SFU, this film project exemplifies the multimodal learning and literacies associated with the creation of an original film project written and performed by a group of children.  The actors were asked to create two fictional personas - one living character and another that would be some kind of ghost or spirit.  The actors then had to develop personalities and backstories for both characters, and then they had to perform both characters within the production.  Below the film is a link to a video essay that explains the production process in detail.
