mmmm candy.

20 minute video ... pending!
everything must be posted on website by Dec. 16 (Friday).
no etips!

Shooting videos!
1. Shoot
Two options: tapes (analog) or mini-DB tapes (digital)
--> mini-DB's are probably easier since they are compatible with Curry equipment
2. Transfer
Work from the tape
(or use a firewire)
3. Edit
Windows movie maker/ pinnacle on PC
iMovie, Final Cut on Mac
4. Save
.wmv or .mpeg
.mpg4
5. Burn to CD

Tips:
get a tripod
run a quick test before you start
remove and LABEL tape
- can also go to Clemons digital lab, but then must use higher quality tapes
- can buy tapes at bookstore

question: do we need to create the powerpoint/internet activities/etc. that we've included in our lesson plans?

for this week:
to do list: how do i get started on this video? what do i need? set some deadlines...








Notes for lesson plan:
Add in:
- quickly review forms of avoir and etre
- give examples of student responses before you set them loose
- give a list of verbs, phrases, vocab words that they may need (a bit of scaffolding) ... thanks matt! this also adds a bit of "control of error" to the process ...
