This looks like a great resource for teaching movie making to elementary students: "Check out the Me and My Movie feature on Children's BBC. This interactive site offers the amateur filmmaker in your classroom all kinds of videos and written instructions-plotting advice, camera techniques, lighting, etc. Trying all these short tutorials together is the Movie-Making Guide, which helps the student to plan out the entire process" (from Instructify)

Student made music video for Chains by Laurie Halse Anderson. This is what Anderson wrote on her blog about the video: "There is a kid in Oregon who loves CHAINS. He loves it so much that he wrote an original song about it and then made this video. Be sure to watch all the way to the end. There is a surprise there that might bring tears to your eyes. That's what happened to me."
