A group of students comprised of Jenna, Emily, Melanie, Chelsie, Leslie and Renessa chose to make a video that was meant to be a spoof of the TV show "America's Next Top Model". As they were all female, they decided to be male models to make it more interesting. The script was written in just a few days, but with almost a hundred scenes to film, and numerous props and costume changes necessary, not to mention lines to memorize, actual filming took over a month. Leslie acted as cameraman, while the others took roles in the movie. Editing and producing the final movie took another week; due to the size of the video, this had to be done at home on a faster computer. Worsley School Communications Technology classes have been producing videos for many years; 'America's Next Top Male Model' is by far the largest and most intricate movie our students have ever undertaken. The final cut, an mpg computer video, even at just 320x240 pixels, is almost 200 MB in size, large for the time. Unfortunately my copy of the video is lost; if anyone has one please let me know! Here are some pictures we took while they were filming. 
 
 
 
 
 
 We have a tradition of presenting an award to the student who showed the most acting ability, both in on-screen demeanour and in dialogue, during the Communications Technology course. Many of our student actors displayed fine work in the various videos that were produced during the semester. However, this year the award goes to Renessa, whose acting ability just seemed to get better and better with every production she appeared in.
