Today's Agenda

  1. Warm-Up (See above)
  2. Storyboards and permission to film.
    1. "It's in my head" doesn't count as having a plan.
    2. Students with their movies "in their head" on Wednesday complained that they didn't get any filming done after 10+ minutes in the hallway with a camera and crew.
    3. Do not ask for permission to record without a finished storyboard. Without a storyboard, I have to assume your goal is to waste the time of everyone you take into the hall.
  3. With the rubrics for two homework assignments and two projects now finalized, everyone here has something to do that isn't YouTube.
