Projects In the Mood
Create a "Mood" piece video with a time limit of 1 min. Establish a basic mood--tranquility, anxiety, reverence, anger, patriotism, sensuality, spirituality, or whatever--entirely through your selection and composition of clips. Music and dialog may only supplement (but not establish or fully communicate) the mood you select. Without your audio we should clearly get the idea. Stick to one mood or feeling, and don't confuse matters by moving from one mood to another. The video can depict whatever imagery your imagination can derive using the sample video clips from the content CD of the Roxio VideoWave software program or other resources you have available. Keep it simple! Once you feel you have communicated your mood, quit! Your "Mood" piece video requirements § A time limit of 1 min.
§ A storyboard or script of the video - You may use either the storyboard or script format but as a group you will need to decide which format before beginning.
§ A mood conveyed
§ At least 3 edited/cut/trimmed scenes from their original clip
§ Sound
§ Credits
In order to accomplish this as a group you will need to complete the following steps:
1. Review the sample video clips on the VideoWave content CD or find other available resources such as on the Internet.
2. Meet as a group and decide the mood of the piece based on the available video clips.
You may reverse steps 1 and 2 if the groups want to start with an idea and then find clips to match that.
3. Assign or decide as a group production roles for the video.
Roles will be:
§ producer/editor,
§ storyboard/script artist, and
§ sound editor.
§ The producer/editor will need to report the assigned roles to me, the instructor, for documentation. They will also need to discuss what format they can accept the video clips that you will be sending them later. If you are producing your own clip or using a previously produced clip from sources other than the VideoWave content CD to send to the editor, provide them as an avi file for importing into VideoWave. Other video editing programs
may work better to import a different file type. Also, windows media encoder can accept only avi and wmv files.
§ The storyboard/script artist will need to inform the group members what format they want each member to write their storyboard/script scene, storyboard style or script style and file format they can accept for submission to them later.
4. Each member of the group selects a sample video clip from their resources. In providing your own segment for the video, it does not have to be an originally developed clip of yours.
a. Analyze how to edit/cut the videoclip.
b. Write the storyboard/script scene for the selected video clip following the storyboard template storyboard.gif or script example, http://www.cybercollege.org/commerc.htm.
You are only doing one scene hince one storyboard frame drawn or one script scene written is all that you provide individually.
c. Provide the name of the video clip file if on the common VideoWave content CD or the actual video clip if from another resource to the producer/editor.
d. Provide the one storyboard or script scene to the storyboard/script artist.
5. The storyboard/script artist arranges and puts all of the storyboard/script scenes together into one storyboard/script document. This should follow the storyboard template or script example but can be recreated in another format such as Word, pdf, etc. When the storyboard/script is compiled it is sent to the producer/editor.
6. The producer/editor puts all of the video clips together for the production of the video according to the storyboard/script. Several different software tutorials are listed in the readings section.
7. The sound editor supplies the sound effects, background music, etc. to the editor. The producer/editor and sound editor will need to confer to ensure that the sound is of the correct length for the video. When the sound file is compiled it is sent to the producer/editor.
Steps 6 and 7 should happen in collaboration with each role.
8. The producer/editor adds the sound track and produces the video in a windows media streaming video format (wmv or asf). The video is uploaded to the video drop area. The "Mood" piece with its storyboard/script are presented to the discussion area in whatever presentation style was decided on.
Here is an example of how the storyboard was developed as a group member and as a whole project.

The video needs to tell a story but does not have to entail the whole original sound track. The purpose of the video is to feature or highlight the music for promotion. Develop a storyboard or script for the video including details for your filming and editing. Be specific about setting, lighting, angle, sounds, etc. Video Requirements:
§ Demonstrate knowledge in composition such as ratio of image to frame, position in frame, line of gaze, pan/tilts, movement, and perspective.
§ Demonstrate proficiency in basic camera techniques such as zoom, focus, iris control, white balance, and filters.
§ Utilize lighting techniques such as key, fill, and backlight, using incandescent/reflected light, color temperatures, and filter use.
§ Include control and/or time coded tracks, transitions, audio levels, and background music.
§ Use audio and editing techniques to transition the scenes. What many music videos do is to change scenes on the beat of the music.
§ Use character generators, fonts, colors, and principles of composition to create graphic images.
§ Include captions and/or titles for video and graphics.
§ Produced as a windows media streaming file and accessed from the TATC windows media streaming server.
§ Two minutes maximum. Although it is difficult to specify any kind of an arbitrary length for the video, it should be limited in scope and complexity given the short production and post-production schedules that will be necessary in this course.
