Creative Animations With Mindlab

On Monday, the Mindlab visited Matawai School. We worked collaboratively to think of problems in our oceans. We came up with heaps of problems, such as... Animals dieing due to plastic, oil drilling and much more. Next we had to think of solutions to solve the problems. We came up with some very out there ideas, like... Giant fish that suck up all of the rubbish and filter out the sea creatures. Voting for the greens, fining litterers and plenty more. 

The Mindlab staff gave us an app, which we could create a character that ended up looking very much like us. The twist was our buddy made the character for you. It was great fun. Liana and I's characters looked very similar. We had to get the message out there about how bad our oceans are and how to help them and animals, so we made a video using the characters. The goal was to not say ' don't ' do things and suggest other to 'try' things. First step was to make an introduction by starting a conversation by greeting each other. Then to talk about problems and how to solve the problems. My partner and I added some humour to keep people entertained. Overall this was a fun experience. 

I will upload the animation very soon...
