The workshop is an initiation in the film world, an opportunity for participating children to get in touch with the camera, to speak at the microphone, and to get acquainted with a filming platform. Thus, in the first part of the workshop, the children will interact with each other in front of the camera and have the opportunity to improvise different scenes or situations, under the guidance of the trainer.

Children will participate in individual and group improvisation exercises designed to develop their creativity, imagination, focus, attention or teamwork skills.

The youngsters will be doing exercises in front of the camera on various topics such as news stories, advertisements, teleshopping, movie sequences / scenes where they will learn moving, presentation and speech techniques in front of the camera. Exercises will be filmed and projected on a screen, then analysed under the guidance of the teacher. Practically, they will learn to apply innovative ways of working on the recording platform with the help of modern technology. This is important in streamlining the process of creating a movie and could not be achieved until a few years ago.

The Little Stars follow the mysterious detectives in the film

At the end of last week, Little Stars School, www.micilevedete.ro, the first School of Film and Television for Children in Romania, brought smiles and joy to school graduates, parents, grandparents and their supporters. It has just released at Movieplex Cinema, in Plaza Romania, the newest film for children named “Tradarea”. This is the sixth episode of the much-loved “Series” with detectives. The event was a double premiere of both the film and the first play for children’s TV called “Hamster.”

“Tradarea” film enjoys an exceptional acting play from the four children who play the main characters but also from the Little Stars, with all the graduates of the school. It is a remarkable breakthrough they made all. 7 years ago, when we started this project, we did not think we’d ever reach that level. It is true that the five Cannes Film Festival participations have raised the top notch all over”, said Ariana Pendiuc and Ema Pendiuc, the two sisters who for the first time signed the film together.

The action of this episode takes place around a strange series of strange events that sabotage the stage performance of a theater show for years. Following an accident during the rehearsals, even on the scene of the show, Erica (Erika Rantes, 10) is injured. Detective assistant (Silviu Ciuperca, 10 years old) sends a weird self-image, and Detectivel (Matei Burgui, 11), the lead character of the series, is trying to find out the mystery behind this happening. Helped by Alexia (Alexia Andrei, 11), eternally in love with him, Detectivel starts investigating with his friends. Do the spirits sabotage the show, as the children think, or someone who has a serious reason to do it? Tradition and friendship are two things that kids will learn in this new film with an educational theme. The first 5 episodes of the detective series can be viewed online at www.club.micilevedete.ro. The first online children’s educational platform for children, with educational themes – The Little Stars Club – is supported by Giusto Natura and Reinert-Martinel, two partners who have understood how important it is to invest in the education of our children.
