Multimedia Presentations: The Beginning

Our multimedia Argument Presentations bring upon much excitement. I’ve actually been looking forward to this assignment all along. However, although the assignment will prove quite entertaining, there are still some things of concern. For example, the amount of time we (as a group) will have to put into the project concerns me—not because it is a lot of work, but because Thanksgiving break takes away a lot of time and because of the availability of all of our group members being able to meet-up with one another. I am also worried about finding areas to shoot video clips without many distractions. Pointer and tips will be quite helpful at this point. Moreover, if you could give us (the class) a brief run-through of some of the free programs we could use that would be beneficial. What is already helpful are the videos you show at the beginning of class because we can see what other students have done and get ideas and tips about what to do and what not to do. Most of the videos, however, seem to be pretty good as far as grades and what not. As a result, I was kind of wondering if you could show us a video or two on projects that did not do so well, or projects that had an overall all good idea and argument, but the video was of poor quality or didn’t have enough time/effort put into it. Overall, everything seems okay so far. Thank you for all your help!
