Pre-Production
The project asks you to shoot, edit, and mix a short video that develops on the story, images and sounds that you created in your graphics project and enhances it with video. The project should be 90 – 120 seconds in length and is worth 75 points.
This part focuses on the creative and planning process.
• Next week’s assignment Part Two (Assignment Week 15) is to shoot the video footage for your project and assemble it together with your graphics and audio in whatever video editing software you have available to you. (examples: iMovie, Final Cut Express or Pro, Adobe Premiere Pro or Elements, or Windows Live Movie Maker)
• The last step, Part Three (Assignment Week 16 & 17) is to edit and mix the various elements down to a video file that will finally be compressed into an MP4 that you will upload to the server using the title: your first name and last name (as in VPR_APines.mp4)
You may add subtle effects and transitions if you wish, but they are not required.
Objectives:
Develop skill using the timeline-type of interface common to most video editing applications. Develop best practices in video editing file management. Use audio mixing techniques learned in previous projects. Demonstrate the ability to choose the correct digital production tools for the source footage and delivery format that you wish to use.The Pre-production Process (Due Sunday 11/17 by 11:55PM) - MY Storyboard; Two-Column Script; slideshow of graphics gallery

* Note: You can deviate from using your slides, but consider that using your past work with make things easier.
