Dialogo (Dialogue) from the IE Business School in Spain is an interactive (Spanish) simulation used in the first production of multimedia documentation for the bachelor in communication of IE University in Spain and is embedded in the subject Audio-visual Analysis: Digital Writing-Editing. This interactive exercise introduces the practice of shooting and editing dialogue, with the help of a simulation in which students have to choose between different shots in the sequence according to the dramatic progression. What is mportant here is to use the camera positions correctly, different shots can be chosen directly through a 3D model of the shooting. After being introduced to the theory of the axis, students can create their own movies through the simulation. As an output, students can see the final real video, from the different angles they have chosen beforehand. Afterwards, all videos can be published on an open platform, where both professors and students can evaluate and leave comments about the films online or in a debrief in the following class. The dialogue used in the simulation is based on the novel “The heart of darkness” by Joseph Conrad.

CANON Cultuurcel of the Flemish Ministry of Education and Training launched the INgeBEELD project (INgeBEELD means “in images” or “imaginary”). INgeBEELD is divided into 4 seperate subprojects with different target audiences. INgeBEELD 1 (3-8 years) familiarises young children with the different building blocks of audio-visual media through five short films and engages pupils in how to look at things and communicate about the experiences. INgeBEELD 2 (6-14 years) aims to bring about the delivery of audio-visual teaching at school that is adapted to the living environment of different age groups. It focuses on experimental film, video art and shorter audio-visual creations and introduces the basic principles of network culture and the new media. In these tasks, various media are integrated that are now omnipresent: mobile phone, mp3 player, computer games. INgeBEELD 1 and 2 are delivered in boxes with materials such as richly-illustrated textbooks, prints/drawings and photo materials, enriched with digital materials such as online assignments and DVDs with animations, cartoons, video. Young people learn to creatively express themselves by making music and sounds, drawing, playing drama and using video INgeBEELD 3 (12-18 years) is a website that contains 4 modules, challenges and materials for all types of secondary education. Teachers can find many ideas and have access to any audio-visual tool to set up or complete their activities. INgeBEELD4 (for teachers in training and in practice) is in a test phase and plans to make these teachers multimedia literate via a ‘media wisdom’ platform. Visitors discover the possibility of working (themselves) on this via five different worlds consisting of audiovisual clips, films and games, all connected with each other. Indirectly students and schools can then benefit from the media wisdom.

Pay Off! is an educational introduction to moviemaking tools that aims to support and encourage teachers so they dare to start analysing films and let their pupils produce a movie teachers. Pay Off! consists of a 40-minute DVD and a teacher's manual giving a thorough walkthrough of the essential moviemaking tools with guidelines to understand how to get you message through when making a movie. The teacher's guide includes many tasks for students to engage in when they have to learn film-making and analysis. After viewing a chapter, pupils and teachers can discuss and reflect, and before the time of testing, the teacher can use the DVD to prepare for it. The teacher's guide includes many tasks for students to engage in when they have to learn film-making and analysis. It gives students an insight into the shooting and editing of a film, and how students can use editing tools to create their own production. In 2006 Pay Off! participated in the Danish competition "Det gyldne Snit 2006" and won the Jury´s special prize: http://www.fsknet.dk/da/node/474?q=node/504.
