Each workshop has been aligned with the Australian Curriculum, so educators can be assured that content of the workshops is relevant while being authentic to students with the use of current media that kids are familiar with and that they find entertaining and engaging.

Cost
$50 per class (30 students max)

These sessions make use of the high quality content from the You’re Skitting Me series, produced by Cordell Jigsaw Zapruder (CJZ) for ABC3. The Sketch-O-Matic resource was developed to support teachers to use You’re Skitting Me in the classroom to further develop students’ skills as script writers.

This event is a partnership between ACTF and ACMI (Australian Centre for the Moving Image) and is supported by the Victorian Department of Education and Training. To ensure greater accessibility, the price of the Workshop Package has been subsidised. Each class booking of three workshop will receive You’re Skitting Me Series 1 & 2 DVDs PLUS class access to the Sketch-O-Matic.
