Slideshow work week

Mon/Wed classes you only have 2 classes this week and 1 class next week to get your slideshows done. Tues/Thurs classes this week you have 3 classes to finish up your slideshow. 

  • Final Slideshow 30 photos = 50 marks Saved to the M drive and ready to be to be presented on Tues/Wed April 20 & 21 in class. Remember only 10 out of 30 photos can be assignment photos or photos taken within the last year by you. The rest should be ones not used for assignments and used specifically for your slideshow. Please note I have shortened your slideshow to only 30 shots.

Even if you do not have enough photos to put in your slideshow make sure you complete the assignment with something to present next week. Not done will get you a zero, something done/some effort might just get you a passing grade. This assignment is worth 50 marks, so it should be your first priority this week. 

The slideshows will be shown in class on Tues April 20 and Wed April 21 no exceptions.   After your slideshow you should prioritize any Photoshop work that needs to be done.

Criteria for assignment:

  • Slideshow should include your best photos from the class. All photos should be in focus and well composed. There should be 30 shots total.
  • 10 of these photos can be from before this class/assignment photos from the class, but the other 20 need to be recently taken photos by you. 
  • Try to include a variety of different shots. I do not want to see 30 dog shots, or 30 flower shots, or 30 ocean shots. Try to include: macros, landscape, portrait, and other creative shots.
  • You must include music that works well with your slideshow NO SWEARS!!!(some mp3 audio files are on the m drive)
  • You must save on the m drive under your class folder. Your file name should include your first and last name (WMV file extention for Photostory Files)
  • photos should have simple, non distracting transitions, and be timed 3.5-4.5 seconds in length
  • your name should be on the first slide of the slideshow
