  3. HOMEWORK
    1. 09-17: Create a storyboard showing a student completing the steps of making a video, starting with the script writing. DO NOT include any dialogue.
    2. 09-19: Make revisions to your storyboard, taking into account the positive and constructive criticism you collected today.
    3. 09-23: Find a song in the YouTube Audio Library that both captures the mood of your Silent Film AND is long enough to be playing throughout the finished video, INCLUDING title and credits.
