Agenda:

  1. ELO
    1. There will be no more ELOs for the remainder of the school year.
    2. Do NOT stay after school this Thursday with the intent of being in my room. I will not be staying after school.
  2. Series Video 18
    1. Due FRIDAY!
    2. This will be your last official Series Video of the year.
    3. If you want it to be a montage "recap of previous episodes," that's cool, but make sure you've handed in enough videos with varied content to do that. (If every one of your videos is just a "talking head," don't do this.)
  3. Final
    1. Graded and in SchoolMax.
    2. If you don't have a grade above 0, you should have submitted your Final.
    3. There is no time for re-submissions. The score you have now is the score you earned.
  4. Homework Critiques
    1. I will be playing the videos over the LCD projector today, starting at 2:35.
    2. The form will auto-post to Google Classroom at 2:30.
    3. You will have one minute between videos to finalize any critiques you have. Use it wisely.
      1. Talking is not using your time wisely.
  5. Digital Music
    1. Use Sonic-Pi (easier) or PICO-8 (harder) to create a song.
      1. You will likely need to find a tutorial to help you with your program of choice.
      2. Record VIDEO of you playing the song.
        1. OBS is a good choice for this. (Tutorial)
        2. You do not need to use OBS, but you DO need to follow the rubric. #4 is important.
      3. Rubric
        1. Song should be between 2-3 minutes long.
        2. Song should have a clear beginning, middle & end.
          1. Repeating only the same notes for 2 minutes is lazy.
        3. Song should consist of multiple instruments.
        4. Video should show the code you're using while the song is playing.
