Assignment: Tell a meaningful story by using effective music and visuals. What's a story? “A character that wants something and overcomes conflict to get it.” Be creative in your interpretation of the song. Let your visuals tell the story. Create your song or find one that is copyright free and it can be publicly streamed online, pick a copyrighted song and it can be posted privately to your digital portfolio through lfhsnewmedia.com.
Due: 2-4 minute video that uses the tone of a song to guide your communication of a storyline that connects with your specific audience in the LFHS community. This project can only be optioned into if you received an A- or better in your first project.
Goal: To combine the power of music with the visual techniques learned so far to communicate a meaningful message that makes your audience feel a specific emotion. This is not a reenactment of the lyrics, craft your story around the tone and story of the song.
