Today, Joshua presented the video outline to the MVP team. This represents a creative combining of ideas put forth by team members during the brainstorming sessions from last week and the week before last. It is a little different than what we settled on last week, but I think it represents the message of the song better. Homework: Look at the Faces Video Breakdown. After reading the instructions below, click the link back to the "Faces" demo. Storyboard at least one section of the song. Sections are numbered on the left of the page in the column that says, "Shot grouping". Your story board should be 8 to 16 frames. Each frame should have a description of what is happening. Remember to think like a visual storyteller. Establishing shots, wide shots, medium shots, over-the-shoulder shots and close shots all have a purpose. Use them wisely. "Faces"

Today we reviewed the ideas that the students came up with last week. We sorted through the ideas and added to them. The students worked in groups to flesh out the ones with the most promise. Then we came back together as a whole group and listed all the additional ideas. Finally, we voted group by group on which idea we would finally settle on.
The 2017 Music Video "Faces" will be about the potential that students have to change the future for the better as they work together. Student characters will start from a place of hopelessness, depicted in varied hopeless situations. Then they will each be presented with a magic mirror that allows them to see themselves in the future. The future will always show them helping people. We also talked about the possibility of using Mr. Richie and using the bubbles as a substitute for the mirrors. |
Christopher BlackmonAs the originator and lead teacher for the MVP team, I want to leave a record of what worked and didn't work so well right here where everyone can see it. Hopefully at the end of the year, we'll have an experience to learn from. Archives
