Getting ready to disseminate our project!
MAGIC Comenius students thought to present our project to the rest of their class mate!
So they prepared three presentations about the MAGIC Comenius project in general, the social media and advertising themes and our visit to the Netherlands! In this way we all hope that young students and the rest of our school teachers will better know the objectives and the aims of the project and get a good feeling of our Comenius spirit!

Are you ready for our online comic book?
Today we set up our accounts at Pixton.com so that students can create their online comic books.
So we formed a group of fifteen students from 7 partner schools participating in the MAGIC Comenius project that will have the chance to unleash their creativity, express their selves and make their own art about social media, advertising and our visits to the Netherlands and Slovenia.
John, Panagiota, Anastasis and Marios started getting familiar with Pixton's environment by creating the characters and setting up their scenarios.
So please come back to our blog to see and enjoy students comics!

Thessaloniki Cinema Museum
Today the Comenius team visited the Thessaloniki Cinema Museum. Students participated in an interesting educational workshop about the history of the moving image and the Greek cinema.
Students had the chance to hear about the history of the world cinematography, watch a 3D movie about the cinema, watch and hear about important actors, directors and films in the Greek and international filmography.
Finally the students entered the world of filming in a special studio where they wrote their script, shared parts and used the cinema camera to produce their short film. That was the most fun part of the visit!
Finally we all had the chance for a short walk in the port of Thessaloniki!
