Lip Dub
THE CHALLENGE: Take a movieclip and add your own, original audio. Be the voice of a trailer or become a character with something new to say.
THE DETAILS:
Do some research and find a clip from a movie, interview, highlight or whatever that you want to use.
Email Mr. Wolfe a link of the videos you want to use. He will email you back a usable video file.
Turn down the volume of your clip. Google how to do that if you can't find it.
Add in your own background music and voice. iMovie has a 'record voiceover' feature that you can use. Microphones are available in closet 2 on the top shelf.
Edit your audio to match your visual as best you can. The more time you spend on this detail, the more entertaining it will be!
Export your video as an .mov or MP4 when you're completed. For instructions on how to do that click HERE.

BLUE CIRCLE (2 PTS.) IN ADDITION TO ALL IN THE GREEN CIRCLE....
Video and scenes are well edited. Difficult to tell where the beginning and ending of clips.
Sound effects are added on top of original sound.
Music is used when appropriate (Introduction or Conclusion or dead time...)
All citations done correctly
Content is original. Ideas are new to a large audience of people and have not been seen before
Editing techniques are added to make the final product look 'polished'. Examples: Altering video speed, colors, titles, backdrops, green screen, fade in and outs, layering, visual effects, etc.
Your presentation is clear and does a nice job communicating the new technologies and editing techniques used
BLACK DIAMOND (3PTS) IN ADDITION TO ALL IN THE GREEN CIRCLE AND BLUE SQUARE...
Editing between clips is seamless.
The content and idea of the video is not only original to a large audience and has rarely been seen before but the content delivers a message and purpose to those who watch it. MORE than just be funny or entertaining.
At least 5 editing techniques are used to make the completed project look professional. Examples of such techniques are listed above in the Blue Square criteria.
Advanced iMovie, Final Cut Pro, WeVideo or other video editing software techniques are used and explained in your presentation.
The project is completed independently. New technologies and challenges are researched and problem solved using your own critical thinking skills
