9:45 Attendance & Review of Remote Day’s Homework

Depending on where you are with Cawd 2 assignments, you many have a little or a lot to do for next week. Let’s have a look.

Rendering

Yesterday we went over a bunch of settings. I played around with some grass I made and made some adjustments and test renders. Click on each image and have a look at the caption for meta information.

12:00 – 2:05 Production Sprint

last looks image

A rare gift – production time. This is the final stretch and you likely have many small items to tackle to get your animation ready. Use your time well. You should be well in to your animation story at this point. Create a quick task list of work you want to complete today.

A quick (but not complete) checklist:

  • Fade in from black
  • smooth animation
  • clear audio
  • error free text with no grammatical errors
  • 25 seconds
  • Identifiable message about dangers of distracted driving
  • attractive render
  • uploaded to YouTube
  • Submitted the Event Brite Link

I highly recommend you are practicing good saving techniques and backing up your work. Let me know if you need a USB drive, I can loan you one.

If you complete your work today, check PowerSchool to see if you have missing assignments. If you are looking for alternative work if you complete your animation, come see me. I have new cameras and you might enjoy taking some shots on this sunny day.

2:00 – Around the Room – Quick Updates – What’s Next

Remote Days – Homework

Posted at the end of the second in class day of the week will be the remote homework you are to complete. This work will be due at the start of the next in person cohort meeting.

Remember, you must be completing articles by 2:05 for each remote day (except Wednesdays) to count for CTE attendance.

#1 Finish Animation & Submit to Contest

Your task is to complete your final PSA animation and submit to the Vermont Highway Safety Alliance Website.

You must complete the registration through Eventbrite which is linked in the following  Submission Guidelines. Attention to detail is important, so be sure you have reviewed before posting to YouTube and submitting.

Alternatively, if you want me to post to YouTube, please let me know when your final render is ready. You can do this by emailing me and sending your .mp4 to me. I will then send you the link so you can submit through the contest registration.

For Grading, please send me the link to your final contest submitted video on this PSA Submission Form. We’ll watch all the submissions together next week.

#2 Complete Wednesday Remote Learning Assignment

You will be navigating your StockMarket game account and purchasing some stocks. Follow the directions posted on the slides for Cawd2 Remote Wednesdays
