Next week we are actually started to do video assignments.  Like a lot of other people in our class I am a bit nervous about doing this.  So to help calm our nerves, we had a pre-production step added into this weeks assignments   For this we had to pick two video assignments that we found interesting and thought that we’d like to do next week.  Here are my two:

The first assignment I am interested in doing is five seconds of fame.  I was only able to find one example of this assignment being done but it was helpful to see one that someone else had done.  I am currently at the beach with my family for Easter so I am going to try to capture something funny here to use for next week.  I am officially on the look out for something that is short and hysterical.  Wish me luck.

The second assignment I am interested in doing is lip sync your favorite song.  This one seemed appealing to be because there is few things that I enjoy more than turning the radio up loud and lip syncing with over the top faces and hand motions.  I’m got some videos from this summer of my and my swim team doing this, but I may consider doing it with some of our family while at the beach.  I’m on the look out for some good ideas.   I found a couple examples here and here of previous students doing this assignment.  I’m hoping to get more people than just me in the video to make it a bit more fun.

I’m looking forward to next week.  Seems challenging but I’m up for it.
