Romeo and Juliet stick act

This week for writing we have been learning about Shakespeare. LS2 have been creating DLO's about the play Romeo and Juliet. The DLO we were told to create was a Animation, but we decided to switch it up and create a popsical stick act. We were in a group of 3, in my group was Victoria and Nidhi and we all gave each other roles for each character. I was Friar Lawrence, Victoria was Romeo and Nidhi was Juliet. The process of creating this act was to first create the characters digitally, also create the background for the characters to be in front of. We would also change the way the characters are positioned, meaning the Juliet could be sitting down or kneeling. Then we would get the characters and background printed and then cut them out. Next we use the class iPad to record the scene and last we record a voice over to use over the video. I really enjoyed this activity because it really helped me to understand the story of Romeo and Juliet.
