Assignment Idea

Album Mashup

Create a mashup on GarageBand or comporable with multiple songs from the same album.

That’s Not It

Edit a scene from a movie or TV show to make it seem like the subject of conversation is something entirely different. A dinosaur in Jurassic Park? No, it’s a cat. The Death Star? No, it’s a watermelon. See how convincing you can make the new scene.

Digital Coloring and Music

Use google’s digital coloring of famous artwork, screen-record yourself filling it in, mash the video with a song, and post it!

Twitch Emote Mashup

Are you an avid Twitch watcher? Do you use Chrome extensions such as FrankerFaceZ, BetterTwitchTV, or 7TV to see exclusive emotes created by the community? If so, this is the perfect assignment for you. Pick your favorite streamer and your favorite Twitch emote and combine the two somehow! Use key elements from an emote and apply it to a picture of the streamer, combine one of the streamer’s exclusive subscriber emotes with another, or whatever you like, as long as you’re combining the essence of a streamer with your favorite emote!

This assignment is listed as 3 stars but it can be counted as 4, but there’s a catch. If you’re able to have the streamer activate the emote you create in their channel and have an exciting experience with chat using it, write about that in the blog post to get an extra star!

Coming Soon: Something That Already Exists

Movie studios seem to be really into using characters and stories they already made, huh? Between remakes, reboots, and the popularity of adapting media from one form to another, it feels like no one has any original ideas. Embrace it! Your assignment is to make a movie trailer for a character or movie that already exists, as if it was going to be remade in live-action. Who would you cast as the lead? Or as the villain? Scour the internet and find clips where they look or sound like those characters, then combine them into a trailer! (If you choose a movie that’s already been remade in live-action, try to avoid using clips from that version. It’s time to make your own!

Plant Potting and Propagation tutorial

For all those plant lovers, I woke up feeling like I wanted to buy a new plant today. My local plant shop has a sale so I’ll be making a video later on the plants I got and how to pot them! This project is time consuming collecting materials if you don’t already have them. Allow time for planting and video producing/editing. Make sure to explain the steps and your process, and show the final product!

TikTok of your pet

Create a TikTok of your pet doing something funny! Put a silly or popular sound over the video, or maybe a voiceover.

Music and Imagery and Explanation

Mashup photos from your favorite movie with the sheet music from the best song in the movie. Using Adobe Photoshop or comparable, play with overlays, Image effects, Opacity, and Masks to create one cohesive piece. – I took this idea from another Mashup by Emma Cate and I just wanted to state that I think it is important to put why you think this movie and song go together and give the explanation behind it!

Photos to GIF

Create a gif using images that Are from the same scene. For my assignment, I took images of a girl spinning and tried to capture each step of the turn. Then, I added the images to the gif maker In the order they were taken.

30 Second Memory

Create a 30-45 second film incorporating clips from a memory. I chose to recreate my mother’s wedding day in her dress at the same location. Using these clips, I created A short video. To make it seem like a memory I desaturated the clips and added some grain and dust filters to make it appear to be film. Get creative!
