Manaiakalani Film Festival 2021: Dear Covid19...

 

Covid-19 has stopped us in our tracks but there is a lot to be thankful for. What would you thank Covid-19 for?

  1. Hello Creative Space!

    I really feel connected to this movie as we have been in this lockdown for a tremendously long time! I like how these little kids have the creativity to make these cool projects at home! Good Job!

    I really enjoyed watching your film about all the things Pt England achieved before Covid -19 came along, makes me really miss school a whole lot more during lockdown. I also loved your message about'Covid can never defeat us! It only taught us we can become stonger in our ways. That just shows how strong you little kids are.

    Stay safe and hope to see you guys back at school soon :))

  3. Hi Creative Space!

    I really liked your movie and it's message. This movie is really relateable becuase we have been in lockdown for an very long time. I liked the narrating, it was very clear. I liked how you showed all the events we've done when it was not lockdown and also the things we're doing in lockdown.I wonder when we will come back? Your movie was amazing! Great job!

    I enjoyed viewing your film about how fantastic and enjoyable our lives at school were before the Virus reappeared. Although it is important to keep safe here at home, I miss school and all the fun we had. I really like how you delivered a powerful message about the disease. I'm interested as to what your favourite moment of the film was?!
    Anyway, have a blessed day and stay safe!!

  7. Hey Creative space,
    This movie is really awesome. It gives a different point of view. As we all say Covid is the worst thing that has happened to us for the past 3 years. After seeing this movie, I've learnt some much things because of Covid. Maybe Covid is a lesson for us to learn about. Maybe not, but what I do know is Covid can never stop us PES kids from learning. Thank's for showing a different perspective pf Covid. I can't wait to see whats to come next year.
    From Angelica!

Nǐ hǎo My name is Meela and I love your blog it has A very good meaning and I love all the videos you put in it I would thank COVID-19 for letting us learn more at home and spend more time with our Whanau, but i think you should speak more louder and make the music a little tiny bit quieter because I couldn't hear the person speaking. Xièxiè bye

  27. kia Ora Creative Space!

    What a lovely movie with a lovely message. I loved how you shared the memorable things we did before lockdown. This movie gave me a flash back of all the amazing things we did and how much memories I have made during lockdown as well. With watching this movie It just made me think more about how lockdown has made so much memories throughout google meets. But all thanks to the parents and teachers for holding it down for us and making it possible for us to still enjoy it. KEEP IT UP!!

    Kind Regards:

  28. Kia Ora Creative Space,
    I absolutely loved this movie about how our tamariki have coped during this extended lockdown in Tamaki Makaurau. It shows how resilient they are, learning new skills and trying new things at home. Being helpful towards others and being proud of their culture! I also love the soundtrack Pepeha by 660, as it's one of my favourite songs. The narration was beautiful.
    Thank you so much for making your movie so inclusive to everyone involved.

    Thank you for creating and sharing this moving video. I watched your movie with my class and became quite emotional. Your movie reminded me of the awesome learners that I have in my own class and all the things we had done together at the beginning of the year. It also enabled me to reflect on what I am thankful for during these last few weeks of lockdown.

  37. Hi Creative Space!

    This year has been a bit crazy and when lockdown hit again it got even crazier. I'm glad that lockdown/covid didn't stop us from learning. I also agree, thanks covid for helping us learn something new and to appreciate what we have. This movie was very sweet. I also love the song which was about a pepeha. Keep up the beautiful work!

  43. Hello Creative Space.
    My name is Amihuti From St Pius X Catholic school, and I can relate to exactly what you are saying. Before lockdown we could go on trips to tournements and even be with our friends but no we have to see eachother virtualy. But this has helped us to improve and evolve into better stronger people with a stronger mindset. That is all keep up the good work Creative Space

    I really enjoyed your video, we need to know why to enjoy lockdowns and how to make them better and be grateful. I like how you had lots of mini clips that you all took. Maybe you should have inclued a bit where you said that some people enjoy covid as some don't?
    Did you enjoy making this? Why?
    Thanks for sharing!
