You have the entire period to edit your music videos. Go ahead and have a few people watch your videos so you can have feedback to see if you need any last second shots.
You will do an "official" peer edit Wednesday. Videos are due Wednesday at 11:00 sharp. If you are behind, work during TAP, lunch, and after school. Do not plan on turning in your video late.
Next assignment: documentary. I'll post info on that later. Start brainstorming for doc subjects. The one major thing you cannot do is "A Day in the Life" of a friend. More on this soon.

Today in Video 1
Good morning,
I will not be in today until 11:15. I will miss third period and the first ten minutes of fourth.
Today:
Export your commercials to Quicktime, change permissions, and drop them into the Vidstore server in the proper period. Videos are due today and I am not accepting late work on this assignment.
When you have finished your commercial and dropped it, I want you to go onto YouTube and look for four music videos that you would recommend others watch. I want you to copy the links so you can paste the link and describe the videos in the comment section below (click on comments and make sure you include your name). Also, please list why you think this is a good music video for the class to watch.
Example:
Trent Mitchell
Pearl Jam
Do the Evolution
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FS69fuCOhTM
This is an animated video that seems to pay homage to Pink Floyd's The Wall. The animation is both crude and unique. This is a good video for the class to watch because even though it is animated, the video still showcases simulated camera movement, location changes, and large amount of creativity. Most importantly, the video can really encourage you to think about humans impact on the globe.
After you have posted your links and info you may watch other videos your classmates have suggested. Please post school appropriate videos only.
Your homework: Figure out what song you would like to use for your music video. Music videos should be 2:30-5:00 in length.
We will watch student and professional examples in class on Tues/Wed.
Another video to get you started http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2cYWfq--Nw
