Thursday, March 24: Visual Poem Final Cuts Due

The final cuts of your visual poems are due today. We’ll screen them together.

 Upcoming Dates

For those of you who are doing the visual poem/five-minute doc trajectory this semester, your next and final major video assignment is coming up. Pitches for your five-minute short doc will be due next class, Tuesday, March 29, when we’ll workshop your ideas together in class.

And a reminder that your breaking news assignment must be completed this month. Since March 31st falls toward the end of the week I have extended that to include the weekend, meaning the assignment will be due by midnight Sunday, April 3. I recommend using WeTransfer to send me the dopesheet and video file.

Coming up, I want to schedule one-on-one editing sessions with everyone working on a 10-15 minute documentary sometime before spring break, which is in three weeks. Timing-wise, when would it be the most helpful for that to happen? It would essentially replace a class and/or I could hold it on the weekend. Let me know what makes sense.
