Here are the updated DUE DATES based on the change of Wednesday's "Field Trip" in my classroom.  I have also broke down a job list for Wednesday too.  I decided to invite my Art 3 students in to help us on the Art side of things, and I thought it would be nice with a few more people too.  Let me know if you have any questions.

1/3 OF SCENES SHOT: Due by Tuesday 2/12/13 Need to show them to Mrs. S. = 15 points.

ALL SCENES SHOT: Due by Monday 2/18/13 Need to show them to Mrs. S = 25 points
                                     *Editing on scenes that are done need to be worked on over the
                                       weekend-remember you will let your teammates down if you are
                                       behind and don't get your stuff done- DON'T do that to your group.

2/7/-2/15: Class time should be used to shoot your footage (especially if getting
                 together outside of school is an issue for your group)
                *And talking about the editing details-look and feel with transitions,
                  anything on the editing end.

2/18-2/20: Class time to work on helping each other edit your movies in After Effects.

DUE DATE for individual Scenes Edited: 2/22/13

WHOLE MOVIE together Due Date: 2/25/13 

We will watch all Movies on Monday 2/25 and I will introduce the next assignment on Tuesday 2/26.

Time Movie-Guidelines

CHANGE OF PACE:

Everyone in the Group Must do the following within your group:

     1. Take full responsibility for 1/2 or 1/3 of the Scenes.
         (example: you have 9 scenes, 3 people in your group, each person
               is responsible of 3 scenes)

 What all does a SCENE RESPONSIBILITY entail?-Good question, let's take a look :)

     1.  Shooting the Camera footage for that scene.
     2.  Setting up all angles for your scenes-keep 5-7 seconds per angle in mind.
     3.  A detailed script for your scenes-turned in individually on the due date listed below.
          -You need to be the leader for your scenes-so you can have help from your group,
            but you should be directing it. 
     4.  You are 100% responsible for editing your scenes in After Effects
          (if using another program-please see me).
          -This includes uploading your own footage-adding transitions, audio, music,
            color corrections and any effects.
         -So now you are all going to have to work together to collaborate on script,
           camera angles, then what you want the look and feel of the video to be when
            put together (A LOT OF COLLABORATION-the whole way through)
     5.  You will then all drop box your own footage individually to me.
     6.  Then you can choose 1 person to finalize and put the whole thing together
          after I have everyones individual footage. 

DUE DATES:

1/3 OF SCENES SHOT: Due by Tuesday 2/12/13 Need to show them to Mrs. S. for pts.

ALL SCENES SHOT: Due by Friday 2/15/13 Need to show them to Mrs. S for pts.
                                     *Editing needs to take place overt the weekend-remember you
                                       will let your teammates down if you are behind and don't get
                                       your stuff done- DON'T do that to your group.

2/7/-2/15: Class time should be used to shoot your footage (especially if getting
                 together outside of school is an issue for your group)
                *And talking about the editing details-look and feel with transitions,

DUE DATE for individual Scenes Edited: 2/20/13

WHOLE MOVIE together Due Date: 2/22/13

TIME

You need to create a movie that is centered around TIME. 
How you choose to portray time is up to you-Here are a few general ideas, but you are not limited to these:

     -Time moving Fast
     -Time moving Slow
     -Time standing still
     -A time Limit

EXAMPLES:
The Time Machine

12 Monkeys

Phone Booth

 

The Lake House

 

1 day assignment

Everyone must recreate 1-2 yard signs.  

Try to take your own picture and make the designs more unique then what you see here. 

Below are examples of the previous signs.

Children's Books=Movies

Let's take a look at a few Children's books that were successfully turned into movies.  Usually there is a twist to the original or more added to what already existed.  Don't be afraid to add to your movie.  It will make it more interesting for us as your viewers.  I LIKE TO SEE CREATIVITY THAT YOU COME UP WITH ON YOUR OWN!

Hansel & Gretel

This one is about to come out in the theaters on January 25th.  Let's read the book and take a look at the trailer together. 

 

Hook

This movie is a sequel to the famous PETER PAN.  Let's take a look.
