YOU all must have the following on your blogs, 

based on todays lesson and discussions in the mac studio.




Screen shot Contact Sheet One - all photos taken by Ian

Screen shot Contact Sheet Two - all photos taken by Ian

Screen shot Contact Sheet Three - all photos taken by Ian

Print out your Contact sheet and make decisions. Select images.

Select images and say if it may be used for poster, CD packaging etc

If you decide not to use cross off and say why you decided against using it.

Make sure you have written to the record label asking for permission to use song for your studies..brief outline to them of what you are using it for.
John, Liam and Jacob actually tweeted and tagged the record company who then 'favourited' them. 

Decide who is doing what for the video. Editing. 
Start to decide on titles and credits.
Pop in iMovie or Movie Maker, Sony Vegas or Adobe Premier all of your video clips and they can be shifted around as and when.
You already know where clips go in sequence

Remember to show all of the work you have created and then be selective on what is  important
and shows your development.
Progress, progress, progress.
