Additional ICT related resources;
BigHugeLabs has a 'film poster' making tool. Used with the wallpapers from mossislessmore.com (shown below) this can be effective.
Audioboo (iPhone app / website) is a quick and easy way to record audio, upload it to the Internet, and embed it into blog posts. There is a limit of 5 minutes on the length of an audioboo recording.
Brushes (iPad app) can be used to 'trace and paint' over screenshots from the story, before removing the orginal screenshot to create fantastic artwork creations.
Colorsplash (iPad app) can be used to create small areas of colours in a black and white picture, and recreate scenes from the story as Morris discovers his loss of words, and becomes greyed out.
Comic Life (iPad app / Mac / Windows) can be used to create graphic novels to tell the story, expand on parts of the story, or create new stories around Morris. (Here are two templates for an 8 page graphic novel; one without text prompts Download Morrislessmore and one with text prompts Download Morrislessmore2) Note: these were created on a Mac, but will load on the Windows version of Comic Life.
iMovie (iPad app / Mac) can be used to retell the story of Morris, using still images from the app within the iPad app and adding an audio track as the story is told. With the Mac version greenscreening is possible quickly and easily.
If you want to see / show your pupils how the story was created, there are many images on the morrislessmore.com website. There are also many videos showing development of the app on Vimeo.
