Warm - Up (10 min)
1. POTD
2. Vocabulary (same as last class, download here, and go here to read and begin to fill-in, continued on Monday)
3. Get all clips on your desktop ready to import to your imovie

Transferring files - (15 min)
If you do not have clips, or did not upload yet, use this time to do so. EVERY STUDENT needs to have their own set of clips to edit to complete this project. IF YOU DID NOT COMPLETE FILMING USE SOMEONE ELSE’S CLIPS.

Detaching and Deleting the Audio Track (5 min)
1. Drag a clip to the Timeline
2. Right-click on the clip
3. Select “Detach Audio”
4. Click on the audio portion of the clip (below the thumbnail, purple)

Editing in iMovie (40 min)
Use the shotlist (The Cross, click here to download) and your storyboard (found in a manila folder on the media cart) to edit together your clips.

As we talked about last class, everything you do should have intention. Including the angle, distance and movement of the shot as well as the length of the shot.

Adding Music and Sound Effects (10 min)
You have two main sources to download your sound effects
1.Go to
findsounds.com - (right-click and “download linked file as”, then drag and drop to your timeline).
2. Or, use the music note on your iMovie to access iLife’s sound effects. Again, drag and drop to add sound effects.

I have also placed the "Ultimate Breaks and Beats" folder on the teacher Server. If you would like theme music, and you don't have your own, please use a song from there.


Credits (5 min)
Add credits to the end of your movie.
Include:
actor(s)
director
cameraperson
writer (me!)


Exporting and Saving (15 min)
BE SURE TO SAVE ENOUGH TIME AT THE END OF CLASS TO EXPORT YOUR MOVIE AND DROP IT IN MY DROP BOX FOR CREDIT. Name your file “YOUR NAME_ The Cross”. EXPORT USING QUICKTIME BROADBAND - MEDIUM. THIS ASSIGNMENT IS DUE TODAY.
