Luckily our students have shown up online to take on this important role.
With the help of the motion capture performers, the students are guided through making the artistic decisions to create a music video. They will engage in movement activities to uncover the story they want to tell and decide how they can capture that story through visual storytelling.
Students will be introduced to all the key people in their team. They will experience how to create a dance piece, both from a production and creative perspective.
At the end, we’ll capture your best moves, fusing our technology with your creativity. But will the music video sink or soar? The creative team will decide!

About the AVA Challenge
This is a FREE 9-step STEM design sprint based on challenges facing NASA’s Artemis and the Australian space industry. Hear space industry speakers & choose from several STEM design sprints based on challenges facing the Australian space industry.

AVA teams will choose from a set of six scenarios and design a solution presented in the form of either a 90-second video pitch or poster. A number of teams will then be selected to pitch their ideas at the Young Space Explorers event in December in Sydney!

Scenarios

Earth Observation: Milo Institute – The University of Arizona
Robotics: Trailblazer – The Australian Space Agency
Home on the Moon: Aldrin Family Foundation
Growing Food in Space: Magnitude.io
AI in Space
Telecommunications in Space

Key Information to Teachers on Delivery
