Douglas Dicconson and Kim Birbrower

As we continue to explore the use of video in science education, we turn our attention to the use and creation of short format films. To guide us through that discussion, we are joined by Douglas Dicconson from Theorem Studios and Kim Birbrower from Big Picture Educational Consulting. Theorem Studios and Big Picture Educational Consulting recently paired up to create content for Chemistry Shorts, a project sponsored by the Camille and Henry Dreyfus Foundation to communicate the breadth & depth of chemistry’s impact on humankind. Doug and Kim join us to discuss their work with Chemistry Shorts, the appropriate use film in the science classroom, and the art and work of making compelling short films.
