“A Second A Day” has become popular in videos recently. A moderation for this class would be taking 3-5 seconds of video at the begining of each hour or every half hour throughout the day. The time can be adjusted as long as distance between videos is consistent. The point is to experience “A Day in the Life” of YOU and everyone and everything you encounter! To make it easier set an alarm on you phone to remind you at each time interval!
For one day, attempt to vlog your day! What did you today? What was your favorit part about today? Who did you encounter? Let’s hear all about it!
Create a 2-5 minute stop motion video about whatever you choose! Be creative and make sure to add some music/sound effects in the background!
Create a documentary that tells a story through interviews with several different people. The story can be real or made up. It can be the same story told with different view points, or a story prompt where the subjects create their own endings.
For this assignment, your task is to use the green screen in the production studio in the HCC to pretend you are a reporter telling the updated news during the apocalpse. Have fun and use the green screen to put funny pictures or even scary images in your newscast! Put your newscast on youtube and send us the link!
Let your peers get to know you a little bit better! Ask friends in your class, or even outside of your class, to send you questions. Answer them in a video!
Create a book trailer for either one of your favorite books (it can be fictional or non-fictional or any other genre!) or for a book you personally would like to/want to write in the future! For example, make a trailer (like a movie trailer) for a book such as Catcher in the Rye! Use pictures, clips from other movies (while paying attention to copyright), videos that you film yourself, and more! Share the video to YouTube so everyone can watch!
Don’t give away any spoilers! But, you can use quotes from the book, ratings of the book from The New York Times or The Washington Post! Have fun with it!
Things are crazy out there, man. Decoder rings, missing hats, dinosuars? Who knows where this will all end. Brave researcher Vanessa Locke has some questions for all of us. Download her video and choose at least 5 of her questions to answer by splicing your own video answers/responses in. Be honest and brave!
Create a short video that, 1) shows us who you are, 2) shows us your past experiences
This can be texts, pictures and possibly other videos that will be put together using all of your current social media accounts.
You will choose what to put in and what to leave out, and this doesnt have to be a long video, only 2-3 minutes
This is a video of me speaking to my younger self.
