The projects are:
Choir Song

Your first job with this assignment is to contact the lead person for the project and discuss options with him/her. Second will be to make a storyboard based on that conversation. You will need to schedule a time to film and then edit your own video to be put together with a bigger video to be done at the beginning of November.
September 14th-October 2nd

Group 2- Filming Group
Mock Newscast Project
You will be creating a mock newscast. Your goal is to film on scene events for your broadcast in this group. You will create the scenes and interviews etc. Your broadcast must include the following:
Sports
Weather
Breaking News
Again all of this is made up. Be creative with how you want to tell the story. You should have a different reporter for each segment. Also, you can use other people to interview etc. If you are filming by yourself at home create new characters for each segment.
Group 3- Editing Group
As an editor you have two jobs to do. One will be to edit your on scene footage. The other will be to film your desk scenes.
Your at desk scenes should set up the news cast. Additionally you will need to use the green screen for you at Desk scenes. I am including two links for how to green screen whether you are using Premier Pro or iMovie.
You will also need to include an intro and outro for your broadcast with graphics and music.
