EXTENSION:  Let's Talk!

MAGAZINE:  Out theme is officially SPLATTER PAINT & TEXTURES.
                    *    I need from you a Front and Back cover that showcase our theme well.

                          it that also follows our theme.

Storyboards

Timeline: A portion needs to be established by the end of class on Thursday.  I want you guys to start filming over the weekend.  Use the weekends to your advantage.  The full Timeline will be due with your Storyboard on Tuesday.

Storyboards: These are due on Tuesday.  I will be out on Monday so you have the whole day to work on them in class, but they are officially due on Tuesday.  Scripts and all.  I want to see details and camera angles too. 

Happy Tuesday

Hey Guys,

Sorry I will not be in today.  Here is what I would like from you by tomorrow:

In a paragraph write down what your story idea is for your new movie topics.  Tell me the main ideas here, this is just so that I can get a feel for what you are thinking and see if your story has potential to be turned into a movie.  Basically this is your way to persuade me and sell your idea to me.  I will meet with each of you on Wednesday in class to hear your ideas.  We will also watch anyone's time movie that is done too.   If you finish your solid story paragraph for the next film, please start writing out your script.  As your script will be due in a few days..........so START THEM NOW!

Thanks guys and have a great Tuesday,
See you all tomorrow,
Mrs. Schneid

If you have any questions please let me know.  Brainstorm ideas over the weekend.  Use the website above as guidance too-it is a great resource for movies that were already created based off of your theme.  And get your time movies all finalized too.

Reminder

ALL edited time footage is due tomorrow.  You can wrap it up during class, but by the end of class I should have everyones individual cut footage with AUDIO.  By the end of class your group "Leader" should have your final footage so that it can all be put together over the weekend so that we can watch movies on Monday (LETS HOPE we don't get this one 2 weeks late, not to mention any names:) ) 

I can't wait to watch these movies-I've seen some good scrips and clips.  Your movies all seem to get more and more creative, which I love to and hope to see.  So Kudos and Thank You!

START THINKING ABOUT YOUR NEXT MOVIES:
During class today I am going to meet with each of you to get you thinking about your next movie ideas.  That way you can have a little longer to ponder your ideas. 

One on One Meetings

Today I would like to meet with each of you individually and see what YOUR footage is that you shot, all angles of your scenes that you were responsible for.  So please come to class prepared with your footage.  Shooting your own angles is worth 25 points.  Remember all footage and audio was due today.  I hope you are all keeping up with my deadlines. So make it happen!

Great Job!

Hello Everyone,

Happy Valentines Day!  Sorry I am not there today, but I will be back on Friday.  I just wanted to say great job yesterday painting, being painted and to the camera crew too.  You guys all did a great job!  And THANK YOU all too for being patient and being a part of one of my favorite "in house" field trip lessons.  I really enjoyed watching you all work so hard and the creativity that I saw in all of you.  I hope you all enjoyed it as much as I did too.  Here is a pic  that Chaz finished editing-AWESOME job!

As for today, I think you all know what you have to do.  Solo groups and groups that have a lot of footage shot should be working on editing together in class.  To my group of 5-FILM, FILM, FILM!  Just let the sub know where you will be.  I left a note on my desk that it was ok for you guys to go and film.  Please turn the light off in my office and close the door when you leave.  If anyone needs anything, please just let me know.

Have a GREAT day and see you all on Friday,
Mrs. Schneid
