Your assignment is to generate a 2-3 minute video welcoming people to your school. This could be used for welcoming new students, or used to attract new students from other schools. Here are the steps that you need to follow in developing this assignment:

  1. Review all of the lessons found in Pre-Production and Production at the left.
  2. Generate a storyboard. Remember that the storyboard will contain all of the different shots and locations that you will be using. If it isn't on the storyboard, don't bother to shoot it, as you won't be able to use it. You also need to have chosen any background music and/or written any script before you seek approval.
  3. Get approval from your teacher for the storyboard.
  4. Shoot the required shots. make arrangements for everyone required to be available at one time, so that you don't waste precious shooting time trying to find people.
  5. Import the video into the editing software.
  6. Mark the in and out points on each clip, and generate sub clips.
  7. Assemble the sub clips, music and titles onto the timeline.
  8. Use only the cross dissolve for transitions, unless you seek prior approval from your teacher.
  9. You should have the names of the group members before the beginning of the video.
  10. There should be credits at the end.
  11. The last thing on your video should be the date, usually written in Roman Numerals.
  12. Export the finished project to whatever format your teacher requires.
