Create a quick video based on the same theme as TV shows such as Modern Marvels or How Its Made. Film yourself assembling something basic (such as a sandwich) and then overlay an audio track describing each step. Make sure to hit each step, of assembly, when voicing over the film. These TV shows are very descriptive of the creation process and so should your video. Feel free to throw in a fact clip, about your item, like they do before commercials in Modern Marvels.

We all have sounds that are familiar to us, but strange to others. Examples include the creak in the stairs, the ticking of the clock, or traffic if you life on a road, etc. Record some of the sounds that you hear daily that may be unfamiliar to others and build it into an audio story.

Pick a song (or a minute from a song) and create a video that displays pictures that tell a story with the lyrics. Feel free to make it silly or to make a different interpretation of the song- anyone can do a literal version, how can you make it more than just a slideshow?
