In the TESOL regional event I went to on Friday, Kieran Donaghy from UAB idiomas told us about using videos in the class, something that many of us do already. Yet the sample of videos he produced to do so was just inspirational and breathtaking.
www.film-english.com uses short films that one can find in youtube or vimeo, made by people with ideas and causes and messages to get across, or maybe wanting to show off their skills. The videos as a stand alone thing are worth watching and if you can exploit them in the english class, asKieran has done, all the best! In an age where illustration and film-making has become all the rage, it'd be crazy to overlook these pieces of material. All down to thanks to easy access to technology and "digitality" and affordability.
They are classified by levels and there's quite a few to choose from.

Thanks for sharing Kieran.
