«UNFORMATTED WORDS» Workshop of the European project ACDC, with participation of LABA students.
The ACDC European project is a small-scale partnership in the field of school education co-financed by the Erasmus+ programme of the European Union. The project is coordinated by LABA Valencia (Spain) with the collaboration of Casa da Imagem and Agrupamento de Escolas de Cristelo (Portugal).
LABA Valencia students have been involved in the development and testing of the project workshops. One of them is «UNFORMATTED WORDS FOR DISPARATE IMAGES», with very special creative results. All of them are adapted to secondary school students and other young students.
«UNFORMATTED WORDS FOR DISPARATE IMAGES»
This workshop contributes to getting to know the dimension and character of visual communication about climate change in the media, particularly on the Internet. As knowledge is acquired about the wider social discussion on the subject, students will create their own critical perspective by experimenting with the creation of narratives, through word and image and cinema composition techniques. At the same time as exploring the context of climate change, they will understand how the construction of a discourse depends on strategies of representation.
The result is irregular visual/sound devices that translate the unformed and disparate mode of creative thought.
The workshops have been successfully tested by more than 300 students and 40 teachers in Spain and Portugal. The LABA Valencia students involved in the ACDC project are from the BAH in Digital Media and BAH in Photography and video: Michelle Castillo, Inès Lessinger, Joana Soler and Sergio Pons.
