Abstract:
You are to think of a person whom you think individuals in your discipline,
or area of interest, should know about. The information about this person
can be simply informational, motivational, or inspirational (and maybe
all three). It can not sell anything, be simply entertaining, or be of
such little importance that no one would be interested in watching this
video.
This is a TEAM -or- SOLO project. Storyboarding and productionEditing
will be done on Macintosh G4 computers using I-Movie and/or Adobe Premierre.
The bottom-line is that you must convey a message in this digital medium
(computer-based). The purpose of the project is to exose you to digital
video and digital video editing.
