iMovie+Project

Project:

After doing research on aquarium animal life and going on a field trip to the aquarium with our classmates last week, we now need to demonstrate and extend our learning. The video we took will help us get started. Show some of the video clips that were taken on the field trip. Focus especially on the aquarium life clips. We will work in groups of two for this project. Each group will create one video presentation using some of the clips from the aquarium, pictures you will find and your imagination to show what we learned.

Here is what you need to do. 
 * 1) Everyone (each individual) must choose a specific species of aquarium life that is in the video.
 * 2) Find 2 facts about your species (using the Internet).
 * 3) Find at least two pictures of the species and harvest them from the Internet.
 *  //When these first 3 steps are completed, each group must show the facilitator their facts and pictures. Steps 1, 2, and 3 can be done on individual machines to speed up the process.) //
 * 1) In groups, decide on how you would like your video presentation to look. Storyboard (on paper!) your idea and then show it to the facilitator!
 * 2) Work in your groups to create your video presentation on one member’s computer. Take turns every 15 minutes being the video editor. (Hands-on the computer)

 * 1) Plan the video using a storyboard
 * 2) Must include some video clips from the field trip.
