Week 6

This week was a little awkward with teachers being at other trainings, but we still managed to get quite a lot of work done!

• K-14: Ms. Ieong, we missed you! I only managed to get one group's voice  recorded into the podcast. Some of the kids forgot which topics were theirs. It would be helpful to get all of the keynotes (with the scripts) on one computer. We will definitely make up the time next week.
• 104: Nearly all the videos are shot. I worked with one group editing out the hilarious "out-takes" while Ms. Hamlin finished up the last groups shooting. Ms. Hamlin will continue editing the filming so that next week we can get students to start adding titles and transitions.
• 204/304: Although Ms. Catania was absent, things went smoothly with Ms. Newman and the sub. Students revisited quia to create games. I showed Ms. Newman a new site (ClassTools) for new ideas for games. However, we will need to figure out a way to upload these games to the website.
• 404: Class has mostly finished their PowerPoints and were ready to jump into the real animation with ajax animator. We reviewed how to make an animation and students began turning scripts and storyboards into flash animation. 
• 505: I met with directors and gaffers to work on schedule. They had created a filming schedule but it wasn't detailed enough. I modeled what they needed to do. While they were working on the filming schedule, the other students rehearsed and got into costume. At least half the filming needs to be done by next week so we can begin the editing process.
