Homework/ Coursework

• Your homework is to lip sync to one of your presentation songs and have it all ready and edited using green screen and compositing in a moving background in relation to the song for next Friday's lesson (3rd Oct) as you will be showing it to an audience.

• I will demo imovie again today to give you some ideas on how to create multi layers and create an effective video piece.

• Remember review, reflect and analyse what you are doing and why you have done it. All on your blog, uploaded and ready for next week. 

Pop still shots of the creation of your lip sync on too and this will help you when you analyse and reflect on your decision making.

HAVE FUN and We look forward to viewing and grading your work so far.

OK guys the day of reckoning is here..... you will finally show myself and Mr Dougan your presentations on FOUR  songs to possibly Lip Sync to in lesson today.

Be prepared and make it  good.

Hi Guys, 
as promised your list to do so far on your blogs:

Task 1: Overview of A2

Task 2: Pick 4 possible lip sync songs with info on why you chose and present to an audience.

Task 3: Research and analyse green screening using imovie: show evidence and reflect

Task 4: Quiz from Friday. Notes need typing up with visual examples of shots to help you when creating your own music video. 

TASK 5  And don't forget that Ive asked you to make powerpoint (or other suitable) screen shotted 'how to put images into text'. 

Then complete your poster looking at other tour posters and reflecting these codes and conventions in your own. You should include a small evaluation of which C and Cs you have used and why, and how successful you feel these where. 

Make parrallells between your own and the examples you have looked at. Make sure you include images of the real tour posters you took inspiration from. (Mr Dougan)
