Please complete the following steps today in the lab:
iMovie only recognizes MP4 files. Which means if your camera or recording device does not use this format, you will need to convert the file to an MP4. To do that, use this online converter. It's free and simple, but does require an extra step. Once you convert the file, save it to your own desktop folder for your film project(s).

If you need to sign out a camera (you can always use your own equipment (phones, cameras, etc.), see Ms. Gamzon to do this. Cameras can be picked up at the END of the day (end of 9th period) in room 239. Please return cameras BEFORE school on the following day (whether or not you used the camera).
Please Note: ALL CAMERAS MUST BE TURNED IN TO MS. GAMZON OR MR. CRADDOCK THE FOLLOWING DAY! We have several classes borrowing this equipment. You are entirely responsible for keeping the equipment in good condition. If you break a camera, you've bought it and your parents will have to replace the camera. This has never happened (and I don't expect it to). Guard this equipment and treat it nicely!
1. If you did not turn in your interview questions or 1-page voice over script to my inbox, please do so now.
2. Begin pulling stock footage from the internet: jpgs or picture files that correspond or go with your subject.
3. If you filmed any footage over the weekend, please upload your MP4 file to Youtube. If you are using a camera that does not save your video footage as an MP4 file, you will need to covert it.Uploading film footage:

5. If you have nothing left to work on today, please read chapter 7 ("Fries") of Chew on This. You had homework that was supposed to be turned in last class. Please turn that in if you didn't already.HOMEWORK: Feel free to continue contacting people to interview or plan to shoot your footage.
