Thursday May 30

Good Morning TGJ4M!

Today I will be handing back your Unit 1: Once Upon a Time... A History of Major Project marks.  Your marks have now been updated on Maplewood.  Please ask me if you have any questions.  Overall, I am very pleased with your first major project.  Keep up the good work!
Just a few things:
- Make sure you read the outline and rubric thoroughly.  We did go over the outline in class, however some key aspects were missing from the presentation (key concepts/theories)
- Please use your class time wisely.  I am beginning to think that I should give less time in class dedicated to work periods due to lack of work completed during class.  I will not be as generous for any of the other projects regarding use of class time.

Next, we will go over how to use iMovie to create your stop-motion component for your Unit 2: Flash to the Rescue... Film and Photography Major Projects.  Remember that ALL components of your project are due on MONDAY.  I found a great video that illustrates how to create the illusion of movement for your Part 1- Photography component.  We will watch this video as a class and can ask me any questions you may have.



Here are a few of my favourite stop-motion videos.  If we have time, we will watch them together as a class.  For tomorrow's class you will post your favourite stop-motion video in your blog and we will watch them as a class tomorrow.



Tomorrow I will be providing you with your Unit 2: Flash to the Rescue... Film and Photography Major Projects rubric and we will be going over some basic editing techniques.
