Bonus Points: Tell who sings the song playing during first 3 minutes of class(right after bell)...write down on piece of paper with your name on it and give it to my aide Shane so he'll put your points in gradebook. Ideas in my head to share: Senior Video Around School Idea: Got to share it with you. Please ask me so I don't forget. Spring Film Festival...need a team of kids to help me put this together...Interested? This is our culminating, rock this world, event...get up for this...it's your chance to show what you've got! New TTV Story Idea Bell Assignment: Couple things: *Have required supplies out from last week if you didn't show them to me last Friday. Will check again today. Full credit today, but after today you lose credit. Also...not tape...tough to use cameras which will effect grade. *Sometime today or for homework...read the link on "How to make a Documentary' In your notebook take a few notes on the important information you read. *Weekly Work Charts due this Friday and Notebook Checks Due this Friday. Let's review what should be in Notebooks so far and some outside of class stuff I expect you to do in the notebooks. Like to do today: *With everyone...just a quick review of what we covered last week and add 'How to Import' video. By end of today, you need to have finished your short video test and exported to proper location. Look back to last Friday for details. Trojan TV: *Group of you are helping with the TTV airing next week? See planning sheet to see what you are helping with if applicable. All stories, anchors, transitions, due this week on Thursday!!! Want you to focus on getting these stories done. Have an idea of one to add...telling someone how you care about them or asking them to be your Valentine. Hear me out on this one. If not involved in a TTV story planning, your job is to be working to improve your FCP Skills and understand some of the camera fundamentals....I'll explain more details.
