Ref. 71810-05YOUNGSTERS became movie-makers as 12 children morphed into superheroes, villains, or damsels in distress in front of the cameras.

The piece of film history saw the youngsters devise a plot and turn themselves into characters in just 20 minutes.

The session at PC World was part of the Greenbridge Summer School events and was run by Cineworld staff.

From Dr Octopus an evil octopus with eight mechanical limbs to Princess Choco the owner of all the chocolate in the world each child showed their creative side.

The first group to go on stage battled the Green Goblin.

Dogman and Dogwoman (George and Sophie Bull, aged eight and five) used their laser vision and super barking powers to beat off the evil goblin.

Then Superman, Spiderman and the Incredible Hulk battled Dr Octopus, having only two hours to shut off his death ray before it destroyed the world.

"I like playing the bad guys," said Rory Watson, 10, whose alter-ego was Dr Octopus. "They never win but I like to play them anyway."

The final group to go on consisted of four girls and Chrisie Creese, a PC World employee; otherwise known as the Wicked Witch of Chocolate Land.

Princess Choco Grace Wemyss, 10 was rescued by Catwoman Erin Turnbull, 11 and Kittengirl Lucy Carter, 11 who turned the Wicked Witch into a chocolate statue.
