You will be walked through a series of lessons that culminated in the creation of a Ken Burns style video of the life of the famous Disney animator/author, Bill Peet. In these lessons, you will see how your students can work collaboratively on multiple devices to illustrate, storyboard, edit, script, and produce a video based on a shared text.
