Drama - Period A - 1/28/14

Today in drama we discussed elements of planning, shooting & editing a video. Students were divided into 3 groups and charged with the task of making a 3-5 minute video presentation based on  a fairy tale.  We began the story-boarding process today and all groups managed to shoot some footage. Over the course of this week, each group will attempt to edit their video collaboratively via gmail.  For those students working on editing...this is the program we saw used during class http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-live/movie-maker#t1=overview
   
Homework: Please forward your gmail address to either Jenna Baggs (baggsfamily5@gmail.com) or Tram Fultz (tramfultz@gmail.com) so we can set up groups for editing. Please discuss this with us if your student is unfamiliar with email or you have any reservations about this process.  We are not hoping to break any family rules about media, hoping to work together to streamline homework and interaction with the students, please feel free to talk with us!


Also let us know if it is possible for your student to have access to a laptop during the Faith Drama time. Finally, please let us know if your student would prefer to be behind or in front of the camera before next weeks class time.
