May 27th

Hello and welcome back from Quebec! I hope that you all had a great trip. Can you believe that there is only 7 classes left! Today I'll post a calendar in the class for you to understand how all of these 7 classes will count. Also note that if you're going to be away, you'll need to catch-up. There are 2 long lunches where I will open up the lab downstairs for you to get caught up on any work that you need to finish. 

Your challenge is the following:

You will film a short approx. 1 minute video of yourself doing a mundane everyday school task, i.e. walking to your locker and opening it, studying for a test, working on a computer, signing a book out of the library. At some point in the scene you will drift off into your imagination and imagine what you WISH you were doing. This will be a new clip of something much more exciting! Perhaps you are talking on the phone to your friends, playing outside in the snow, playing your favourite computer game, etc. Don't do anything that you think you would get in trouble for and you must run your idea by me before you do it-remember I'm going to see your video anyways! For this section you do not need to worry about the audio as we will be adding in on our own for this point. Then you will transition back to finishing your mundane task and wrap up your video.


Once you are finished filming your video, you can begin the editing process. Remember that in order to save your in-progress iMovie file you MUST be on your personal account. If you know that you won't finish your edits today (which I doubt any of you will) don't start it on guest.

For an FYI, here is a great clip on what you need to know about audio in iMovie. Even thought it says "basics" it is very comprehensive.
