For the final multimedia project in the class, please choose two or more of the forms we have worked on during the semester and tell a fresh story.
You may work in teams or solo.
The more challenging the project, the higher your potential score. Try adding a form we haven't used in class, such as an interactive map. Or use one of the multimedia tools that you and the other groups presented to the class. The more the better.
You may combine podcasts, slideshows, audio slideshows, and videos.
Examples: a podcast, slideshow or video that plays out of an interactive map; or a video that combines still and moving pictures.
This project does not require a text component, but a text component can be one of the elements.

Video Project Assignment
Create a video package that runs 1:30 to 2 minutes, and a 400-word text to accompany it.
As with the audio slideshows, create a journalistic narrative with a beginning that introduces the subject, a middle, and an end.
Post the project on iReport.com, and embed the video on your blog.
Include sound. This can be natural sound or an interview, or both. It can also include your own narration; however, the project must include sound created outside of your group. Do not interview family members or significant others.
Any music needs to be royalty-free or used with permission.
The text and the video package should complement each other and not simply repeat what the other says. For instance, a team could put together a video about rehearsals for a play, and the text could review the play. The text component is not a description of how you carry out the assignment.
Intermediate deadline -- Wednesday, Nov. 19
-- Post the topic of your video project on your blog, along with the sound source or sources you plan to use, and each team member's assignment.
Final deadline Wednesday, Dec. 3:
-- Upload the project to iReport and embed the video on your blog, along with the 400-word text that accompanies it.

Audio Slideshow Project
Due dates:
October 27: Post 200-word synopsis on blog.
October 29: Post completed project on blog.
Guidelines:
Create a 2- to 3-minute audio slideshow using Soundslides.
Tell a story with this project.
Consider it a journalistic narrative, with a beginning, middle and end.
Include sound from an interview with someone outside of your team, family and love life.
You can mix the sound with your own voice(s), or just use the interview sound.
You can include a music bed as long as you are using the music with permission, or the music is rights-free. (Give credit in the text component of the project.)
Figure out how to identify the project at the top so the viewer will understand what is going on.
Change photos every 4 to 5 seconds.
Embed the slideshow on your blog.
Write a 400-word feature story to accompany the slideshow. Use web-writing techniques: Simple sentences, short paragraphs, search-engine optimized headline. The story should not be simply a transcription of your audio slideshow. They should complement each other. Include a credits paragraph outlining what each team member contributed, like this:
Photos: Martin Zook
Photo editing: Ken Miller
Audio: Cordelia Smith
Soundslides editing: Mort Glassner
Text: Ken Miller and Cordelia Smith
Music: “Flickering Butterflies” by The Griff Wexler Band, used with permission
Synopsis: Post a 200-word summary of your project on your blog. Explain what your slideshow will be about, which sound sources you plan to use, who the intended audience is, and what makes this an interesting story for that audience. List each team member and his or her responsibilities for the project.
Evaluation:
If you want credit for this project, post every element (synopsis, slideshow, story) on your individual blog.
Narrative: 50 points
The slideshow and the accompanying story engage the intended viewer. The photos are an interesting mix of wide, medium and close-up shots that exhibit good composition.
Mechanics: 30 points
The audio approaches professional quality; the writing is free of grammar, style, and spelling errors.
Format: 20 points
The project is posted correctly and meets the guidelines for length, sound sources, shot changes, etc.
A missing synopsis loses 10 points, a missing story, 40; and a missing slideshow, 50. Late work is assessed a penalty of 10 points per day (including the synopsis).
Ideas:
Offices of messy professors
Sports, intramurals, hockey practice, etc.
Campus tourCooking lesson
Concert or performance
Public meeting
Interview an LSC band
Follow a Public Safety officer on his/her rounds

Homework for Sept. 15
We discussed this during our brief "Skype" session on Wednesday:
Please write a 250-word story about the Amber Alert mentioned in the news release under the headline "Online Writing."
Use the inverted pyramid writing style: The most important information goes first, followed by information of lesser and lesser importance.
For example, you would not begin a news story the same way the state police began the news release: "Today, at approximately 4:46PM, the Vermont State Police received information regarding a missing juvenile Zachary Lee, age 12 of Sunderland, VT"
That is not the most important information. In your opinion, what is?
Please include at least one link in the story.
Post it on your blogs along with a disclaimer saying something like "This is not a real news story," just in case someone stumbles upon it through Google.
Otherwise on Monday, I want to talk about podcasts and your podcast critiques. Plan on a quiz about the reading assignment: Chapter 7.

PRESS RELEASE
Amber Alert for Missing Juvenile from Sunderland, VT
Lt. Tim Oliver, Rockingham Barracks Station Commander – 802-875-2112
Captain JP Sinclair, Vermont State Police Chief Criminal Investigator – (802) 244-8781
Sunderland, VT – 9/3/14 – Today, at approximately 4:46PM, the Vermont State Police received information regarding a missing juvenile Zachary Lee, age 12 of Sunderland, VT. Zachary was dropped off at the foot of his driveway at his foster home at 2327 North Road in Sunderland Vermont, but never made it inside. An AMBER Alert was activated at 8:35PM tonight for Zachary.
Zachary was recently repatriated from France. Authorities have been concerned that Zachary’s mother, Patricia Kane, age 49, may take off with Zachary. This is based on a documented history of such attempts while the child was in the custody of the Republic of France.
Patricia has been highly unstable and volatile since Zachary’s arrival in the U.S. This has been noted by several members of the Vermont Department of Children and Families staff, as well as by legal authorities, and school authorities. All treatment team members have been working together to help safe-guard against possible attempts to abscond with him.
Zachary Lee is described as a white male, age 12, approximately 5’, weighing 95lbs, with brown shoulder length hair, brown eyes, and speaks with a French accent. He was last seen wearing a black puffy coat with white stripe, jeans, a light-colored sweater, blue & black sneakers.
Patricia Kane, Zachary’s biological mother, is a 49 year old white female is approximately 6’0” tall, weighs 125lbs., with white or blonde (possibly dyed) hair, brown eyes; and also speaks with a French accent. Her direction of travel or mode of travel is unknown.
The Vermont State Police have concern for Zachary’s welfare because he is under 13 years old; he is unfamiliar with this area, having been here only since August 29, 2014; he is absent under circumstances inconsistent with his established pattern of behavior; and given his mother’s history of attempting to abscond with the child while in France.
Law enforcement authorities are using all available investigative resources available and coordinating with state, local, county, and federal agencies to safely bring Zachary home.
Anyone with information regarding Zachary’s disappearance, please call 802-442-5421 or submit an anonymous tip to www.vtips.info<http://www.vtips.info/> or send a text to “CRIMES” (274637) with keyword: VTIPS.

Blog critique assignment
This is due on Wednesday, Sept. 3.
Go out on the World Wide Web and find a blog. Any blog will do, but I would encourage you to avoid the super-popular ones. Technorati.com can help guide you to blogs on any topic.
I like chickens and Technorati helped me find a blog about raising chickens in the city!
In your critique, please tell us:
- what you like and dislike about the blog;
- how often it is updated (avoid "dead" blogs);
- whether the Comments indicate anyone is reading it;
- what media elements beyond text does it use.
Post your critique on your own blog. Here's my critique of the Urban Chickens blog. Likes: The posts have a lot of interesting information. For instance, did you know that you shouldn't wash the eggs your chickens lay? They are laid with a protective coating. Washing removes the coating. If you leave it on, you don't even have to refrigerate them. Plus, the site has interesting photos of chicken coops. Dislikes: The ads. They're all over the place. Updated? It hasn't been updated since April 2013. It appears to be dead. Comments: Most posts got no more than 1 comment. One got 6; that was among the last posts. Media elements: Just photos. I don't see any video.

Final Projects Spring 2014
For the final multimedia project in the class, please choose two or
more of the forms we have worked on during the semester and tell a fresh
story.
You may work in teams or solo.
The more challenging the project, the higher your potential score. Try adding a form we haven't used in class, such as an interactive map. Or use one of the multimedia tools that you and the other groups presented to the class. The more the better.
You may combine podcasts, slideshows, audio slideshows, and videos.
Examples: a podcast, slideshow or video that plays out of an interactive map; or a video that combines still and moving pictures.
This project does not require a text component, but a text component can be one of the elements.
Tuesday, May 6: Post an outline of your project on your blog. Include each team member's responsibilities.
Deadline:
8 a.m. Tuesday, May 13: Project is due at the start of this class period, which is the time set aside for your final exams. The final projects will serve as your final exam. Each team will present its project.
Evaluation: The project is worth 200 points.
If you want credit for the project, post every element on your individual blog.
Narrative: 100 points
The project's components combine to tell an interesting story that engages the viewer. The more challenging the project, the higher the potential score.
Mechanics: 60 pointsThe presentation of the individual forms (video, audio, photos, text if applicable) approaches professional quality.
Format: 40 pointsThe project is posted correctly and meets the guidelines.

Video Project 2
Create a video package that runs 1:30 to 2 minutes, and a 400-word text to accompany it.
As with Video Project 1, create a journalistic narrative with a beginning that introduces the subject, a middle, and an end.
Post the project on iReport.com, and embed the iReport video on your blog.
Include sound. This can be natural sound or an interview, or both. It can also include your own narration; however, the project must include sound created outside of your group. Do not interview family members or significant others.
Any music needs to be royalty-free.
The text and the video package should complement each other and not simply repeat what the other says. For instance, a team could put together a video about rehearsals for a play, and the text could review the play.
The text should follow web-writing rules: One sentence for the lead; one or two sentences maximum for subsequent paragraphs.
Intermediate deadline -- April 24
-- Post the topic of your video project on your blog, along with the sound source or sources you plan to use, and each team member's assignment.
Final deadline -- Thursday, May 1
-- Upload the project to iReport and embed the iReport video on your blog, along with the 400-word text that accompanies it.
Evaluation:
If you want credit for this project, post every element (synopsis, video, story) on your individual blog.
Narrative: 50 points
The video and the accompanying story engage the intended viewer. There is an interesting narrative arc -- start, middle, finish.
Mechanics: 30 points
The video approaches professional quality; the writing is free of grammar, style, and spelling errors.
Format: 20 points
The project is posted correctly and meets the guidelines for length, sound sources, paragraph style, etc.
A missing synopsis loses 10 points, a missing story, 40; and a missing video, 50. Late work is assessed a penalty of 10 points per day (including the synopsis).
