Extra Credit Assignment DUE 3.19.2010

Hello again parents and students,

Here is the description of the Extra Credit assignment. You should have all received a pinkish paper of the description but here is another communication of the assignment.

This is a Video project and it should be turned in on March 19th 2010, not later. It is a promotional video for any country in the world. It can be a single person project or a group project. You may make a commercial, short film, documentary, music video, etc.

Be as Creative as you can. The more your video project is original to you the better. You may use other artist's work but you MUST give them credit.

It needs to be at least 3 minutes long. That means it can be longer than 3 minutes but it has to be 3 minutes or it will be deducted points. Below you will find a short video to give you ideas of what I am expecting but I am sure your projects will be much better than mine is!

GRADING:
You will be graded on four categories:
Originality: Did you come up with the idea yourself and how creative were you?
Factual: Did you provide information about the country that is true?
Organized: Is your project well organized, well planned, and executed?
Appropriate: Were you respectful to the country you presented and your audience?

Last Note: Please make sure that your credits are similar to a movie so that all who were involved are given credit and also that you give credit to any professionals from whom you use their work. Thank you very much and have fun with it.

Happy Recording!

Mr. Garcia
