Project+1,+2+and+3

For your project you are required to create a digital media work (an image, an audio or a video, project 1, 2, and 3, respectively) that demonstrates your understanding of the previous three lessons (concepts and practice for each media type). The subject of your project is up to you; however, it is important that you demonstrate having a clear communication intent in your production.

Besides the media you will be creating, you need to make a screencapture recording of the steps that you took in order to achieve your production. Your screencapture for each project should be a minimum of 2 minutes and a maximum of 4 minutes. The intended audience for your recording are your peers in Digital Media Creation.

Place your digital media (project and screen capture) in Google Drive. Create a new homework page for the media and place links and related information in it. Once you are done, make a link in your main index Google document (reverse chronological order, last homework at the top) to the new homework page. We have done this throughout the semester for every homework assignment.


 * Requirements**

1) Create a digital media composition (image, sound, or video, for projects 1, 2, or 3, respectively) that shows that you have harnessed the skills from the previous lessons. Hopefully, your work shows something newer, something that you learned on your own. Be creative. That's the point. 2) Use media obtained legally from online media repositories. You can use your own media as long as you assign a CC license to it and you credit yourself properly. An integration of acquired media and your own media is preferred but not required. Remixing is cool in this course. 3) Your work is meant to communicate, not just use the software and media in a technical fashion. Pushing buttons is not it.

4) Technical requirements:

Size for print: 8.5 inches by 11 inches (150 dpi). Saved as a JPG. Full color. Size for computer: 900 pixels by 1200 pixels (72 dpi). Saved as a JPG. Full color.
