Assignment #xx - If we have time - Movie Short Short.....really ... short
You are to use the to use the techniques learned herein to create a short that is **between 15 and 30 seconds long**. Use the models you've worked with (or other models brought in from the internet). You will be doing audio in the next section of the course so this part you will only be recording silly audio noises with your mouth after animating your sequence. We have the recording computer in the studio against the wall, you can use that to record high quality dialogue, then walk the WAV files over to your computer.

Planning is key in this!!! Before you start your project you need to check in with me whether or not you have shown me a "storyboard". Your storyboard will include your rough ideas in picture-form with little notes.

__AUDACITY__
Is a great music-editor. It is freeware and is quite useful in pre-editing sound clips so that they're about the right volume/length. We'll be spending some time on audio in the next section, so don't try to perfect your recorded piece yet.

__**EVALUATION:**__


 * **CATEGORY** || **4** || **3** || **2** || **1** ||
 * **Preproduction** || Storyboard clearly written, labeled, or drawn that another student could create the presentation if necessary. || Storyboard are easy to read and most elements are clearly written, labeled, or drawn. Another person might be able to create the presentation after asking one or two questions. || Storyboard are missing key elements or are hard to read with rough drawings and labels. It would be hard for another person to create this presentation without asking lots of questions. || Storyboard is missing many elements and are hard to read. One cannot tell what goes where. It would be impossible for another person to create this presentation without asking lots of questions. ||
 * **Animation** || The animation is exceptional in every way. || Generally the animation is good, but the occasional sync problem or glitch mars an otherwise great production. || There are occasional problems with sync, with actionscripts and/or artwork, enough to distract the viewer. || The production values of the animation fall well short of expected quality. ||
 * **Use of Time** || Used time well during each class period (as shown by observation by teacher, and documentation of progress in journal) with no reminders. || Used time well during most class periods (as shown by observation by teacher, and documentation of progress in journal) with no reminders. || Used time well (as shown by observation by teacher and documentation of progress in journal), but required reminders on one or more occasions to do so. || Used time poorly (as shown by observation by teacher and/or documentation of progress in journal) in spite of several reminders to do so. ||
 * **End Product** || The resulting short is a masterful fusion of planning, detailed-work, artwork and sound ideas || The resulting advertisement is successful, but the occasional choice leave the piece short of perfection. || The piece contains many poor choices in production and/or sound. The viewer is often lead to distraction. || There might be a story, but it is lost in a morass of errors and lack of forethought. ||
