Announcements for FRIDAY SECTION 3_30_07

DUE TODAY before you leave: get the semester outline
Make certain we have:
1) abmineo (as Quicktime); reburn it and put it under my door 363 Shaffer if necessary. Hand in by Sunday night.
2) images for the Research Stills/Image Project;
3) images from last week labeled if you didn’t hand them in last week

I will put announcements on the blog provided we maintain focus during announcements and have Q&A at that time

Technical Notes:
Burn movies as Quicktime>Full Quality to create a smaller file size; use dvd if over 470 MB

Reminders: play/edit/burn your work from the desktop, not an external drive

Please turn in your Abmineo as a Quicktime Full Quality CD next week if your turned it in as an iMovie this week.

Hand in your disks when you arrive, first thing.

DUE FRIDAY April 13: Research Stills Project

Read Einsteins Dreams before you edit anything more. Online Reserve

We are having a split class because we need to be all together for the video technical intensive, and because we have guest critics coming in to help you critique your work and think about ideas for your final video. Begin thinking about how you want to approach your final video.

Next week we are having a half-class with guest critics. I will post the time you should show up for your critique on there blog.

Burn your disk the day before it is due and test it on a different computer. Burn Research Stills on disk as QUICKTIME movie on disk. Will always put things on disk – hard drives didn’t work. See manual for info on how to burn if you don’t recall the demon.

Remember to keep blogging
***Blogs from now on: only 1 of your “3 Things I Learned or Noticed” should be technical
