iMovie Project

March 4 & 11: Video Workshops!

GOAL: Create a short, simple video using iMovie. Subject matter is open.

RULES: You should use iMovie. If you're feeling ambitious or know the program, you can use Final Cut Express or Pro - but we won't be going over that in class. Also, if you have a PC and prefer a PC program - go ahead and use that. Your videos should be short (2-3 minutes maximum) and must contain the following:
  • 1 title page
  • 1 title overlay (a person's name, for example)
  • 1 photo
  • 2-3 transitions
  • 1 song
  • 1 ending page (more information page)
March 4: Rose will go over video editing, and the class will break into small groups of 2-3 people. You can also work alone, if you prefer. The groups/individuals will begin preparing what kind of video they'd like to make. If you brought your camera, you can even start shooting while in class - if appropriate. Over the week, you should shoot the necessary video and get photos ready so you can work in class on March 11.

March 11: We will work on the videos in class. Hopefully, by the end of class we can upload them to the class YouTube account: http://www.youtube.com/creativeepublishing (password will be distributed in class!)
