Wednesday, 12/8

I’m at a curriculum writing meeting today but will be back tomorrow.

Phones should be put away in wall pocket – they should be out of sight!

Graphic Design 1 – work on your projects. Remember to update your ePortfolio when you finish.

Graphic Design 2 – take the 3rd practice exam. Tomorrow you will take the actual ACA Photoshop exam.

Audio/Video 1 and 2 – if you have not completed the After Effects intros and posted the rendered videos to your ePortfolio, then you need to complete that. Use StudioBinder to write your screenplay.

Computer Science 1 – you will complete the assignments on Techsmart today. Ask your neighbor for help if you don’t understand. Remember that you get a daily grade for your completion of today’s assignments. Not doing it will result in a zero.

A/V Screenplay Writing

You’ll need to use the new account you created in StudioBinder to properly format your screenplay. In this, you’ll write your entire story including dialogue, scenes, shot types, etc.

A/V

You’ll use StudioBinder to write your screenplays. They have tools that will format all of the different pieces of your screenplay. Make a free account using your school email (username@students.lcisd.org) and password.

You need to have these parts completed (below) and turned in BEFORE you begin writing your full story. Know that you can alter these pieces as you being writing your full story. These are intended to help guide you through the writing process.

  • Logline
    • Character
    • Goal
    • Obstacle
  • Theme – what should the viewers learn
  • 3 Acts
    • Act 1 – inciting incident
    • Act 2 – what’s the goal and what are they doing to achieve it
    • Act 3 – the culmination of what happens when they achieve/fail at their goal
  • Protagonist & Antagonist
    • Character names
    • Who are they/what are they about?
  • Write your story – give some details about characters, scenes, etc. But don’t worry about the script yet. That will come next.
