Learning Opportunities

  1. Q3 Project 1
    1. Today is a work day for your projects, Make good use of your time.
    2. See the overview from the 25th for more information.
  2. Brooklyn's Pinocchio
    1. Students with no approved rubric will be editing the student recordings of last week's drama production.
    2. Students with an approved rubric may still do this for EXTRA CREDIT, but it will not be worth a full project grade for them so they should finish their own projects first.
    3. Rubric:
      1. 5 pts: Final edit shows the production in its entirety, with the exception of "black out" scene changes and the intermission.
      2. 5 pts: Final edit always makes use of the best audio (Most often from the center stage camera, as it was plugged into the soundboard).
      3. 5 pts: Final Edit makes use of the best video (Camera to the side was often zoomed in on individual performers. Switch to them when needed).
      4. 5 pts: Final Edit audio syncs up with the video used. (Use a multi-track editor and line the clips up with each other before you place the side camera clips above the center camera clips. If you do this BEFORE chopping up the video you can sync everything at once.)
  3. Podcasting: The Media Behind the Arts
    1. Bi-Weekly Schedule
      1. Segment recordings due 01-09. (Note: We will not be critiquing these until after they have been combined into a single recording.)
      2. Final combined edit published 01-17.
      3. Segment recordings due 01-24. (On hold as we recover from the Film Festival.)
    2. Your contribution will be a project grade!
      1. 5 pts: Dialogue is well spoken and free of verbal filler.
      2. 5 pts: Dialogue focuses on the chosen topic and stays within the time requirement.

  5. HOMEWORK
    1. 02-03: Write a draft rubric for what you want your Q3 Project 2 to be. It CAN be a video assignment at this point but does not have to be. It WILL need at least four (4) line items but never more than five (5).
    2. 02-05: Rewrite your draft rubric from 02-03 while taking comments from Mr. Smith into account. If Mr. Smith has already approved your Q2P2 rubric, you do not have any homework.
