As we celebrate the last days of school and reflect on the incredible work of our scholars and teachers, we are thrilled to share this fantastic project led by Claudius Cooper, the talented music teacher at AF Iluminar Middle School. With a team of teachers and students, Claudius brought his extensive experience creating professional music videos to guide students through every step of the creative process. Students were involved in everything from writing lyrics and crafting the story to designing visuals, filming scenes, choreographing, and directing. Claudius even brought in outside experts to enhance the project. Watch the incredible result at the link in our bio!
