Homework Due Monday 2/3

You will be having individual meetings with me on Monday regarding your stop motion animation. 

You have two things you need to bring /  post to your blog:  

1) 5 - 7 sentence proposal  

2) 10 frame storyboard - this does not need to be highly detailed.  Rough sketches are fine.  

Please be ready to share your ideas about your project with me.  This will be a discussion about your ideas and an opportunity for you to ask questions and get feedback.

Formatting your External Hard Drive

If you are having issues with your external hard drive this video may be of some help. Remember that formatting your external hard drive will erase everything that is currently on it. This video is intended for the people in class who have been having trouble accessing or uploading anything on their external hard drives. If you aren't having any issues with your hard drive then don't worry about this video. https://vimeo.com/34535200

Resume Builder?

If you are interested in filming a Tedx event at Wooster, they are looking for videographers:

"I am hoping to find a couple people willing to help out filming the TEDx event here at Wooster. Camera experience is a definite plus but not necessary.  The date is February 15th from 12pm-6pm with a complimentary dinner at The Wooster Inn afterwards. We will need to meet a couple times and then have a practice run through the week of. They do not need their own camera. Hours can be logged for volunteer hours, incase anyone asks. I would be happy to answer any questions for those interested.

Sincerely

Adam Shapiro"
