2nd Semester, 1st quarter Assignments

Students are expected to keep up with assignments. This means:

1) Writing objectives for each day (dated) on a single sheet to be kept inside student's folder. Objective sheets will be turned in at the end of each quarter for grading (5 pts each for each legible and dated objective, worth about 100 pts for each quarter).

2) Term of the Day: TOTDs are also written on a running sheet of paper, dated, and kept inside student folders, for handy reference. Also turned in at the quarter's end for 5 pts each.

3) Assignments related to preproduction: synopses, storyboards, group crew lists, etc.

4) Production: The actual work of filming.  Your videos won't make themselves, and waiting for somebody else to do the work for you will result in points off your project. Don't believe for a minute that Ms. Hawks doesn't take notice of who is working and who is slacking.

5) Postproduction: It is very easy to allow one or two people in your group to do all the editing work, but team members need to be sharing time on the editor.

6) Assessment: When video projects are screened, it is up to each student to write a minimum amount of evaluations.

7) Team Assessment: The team member evaluation (including yourself) is an important piece of self and team reflection. No matter how good you are, there is most likely room for improvement, so nobody should be rated all 4s.
