#filmchallenge

Have you heard of #filmchallenge ? It's a new DIY tag that we're telling you about just in time for the new month.

Always the innovator, Godric came up for the concept of #filmchallenge in late September. Later in October, her completed challenge was posted as were ones by Forte and Evil Ladybug. You may have heard of it, but how does it work? 
1. At the start of a month, get two jars and put slips of paper in with one jar containing genres and the other containing formats. Some genres are horror, sci-fi, romance, action/adventure, comedy, and drama. A few examples of formats of your short film are stopmotion/animation, narrative live action, noir, ten second film, mock documentary, and music video.
2. Draw a slip from each jar.
3. Get thinking about how you'll be presenting these prompts, and be creative! Out-of-the-box thinking will take you far, and inspiration can be found in a lot of places.
4. Get together whatever you need to shoot this film- camera, iPhone, props, actors, places, anything.
5. Use your camera to shoot your film.
6. Edit it in anyway you want if you choose to. This could include adding transitions, special effects, or music.
7. Upload to diy.org under the hashtag #filmchallenge . You can post your film challenge any time before the end of the month. Then you start again, if you want for the next month!

We can't wait to see what you submit, and soon, we'll make a compilation of our favorite film challenge projects!
Good luck and happy filming!

We are currently in the middle of the hottest time of the year and a great way to cool off is to go swimming! Go head out to a community pool, yours or your friends pool, or a clean lake. While the relief of the water feels great, it can get a little boring with nothing in particular to do. Get out your swimming skills and dive right in!

     Coming up is the USA's 238th anniversary, marking the day that the Declaration of Independence was signed by the 52 men of the Continental Congress. On Fourth of July most people get a day off work to celebrate. So take this opportunity to hang out with your family and try a few of these activities to liven up your day. 

     Make patriotic cupcakes. Pick up a box of cupcake mix (or make your own) and follow the instructions to make a batch of cupcakes. Once they are cooked, get some toppings and go to town. Try using food coloring to dye white frosting either red or blue. Use sprinkles generously and be creative with your fruit! Freedom will taste even sweeter!
