A Homage to the Bard
Vice
When faced with the opportunity to delve into the works of William Shakespeare and make a short film out of them, the students were very excited and soon commenced the delegation of work. After duties were assigned and tasks were planned out, the project geared up. The twists and turns in the script provided the story with an interesting sequence and fulfilled the idea of setting the story in an Indian political scenario and consequentially emerged, ‘VICE’- a tale with a novel kink. The most fun part was shooting the movie. The students travelled to various local locations to shoot scenes for the movie, and this was one of the most profound learning experiences that they’ve had in the project. After marking the end of the shooting, it went through technical processes to ensure that a flow is maintained in the movie and that it serves its aim. The experience was relished and it added to the treasure trove of learning.
The movie secured the 2nd position in Senior High category from the school but the experience gave a glimpse into the world of filmmaking and even helped to enhance many of IB Learner Profiles amongst the students. It definitely was an unprecedented experience which left a long lasting impression upon the hearts and brains of the young enthusiasts and will be cherished for a long time to come.
