Final Projects

Just a reminder your final projects are due next Monday, December 7th. The assignment is PERSONAL PRESENTATION. Answer the following questions:

Who am I?
I believe...(can be a philosophy on school, life, or art)?
I create... (what and why)?

Each person will have a MAXIMUM of ten minutes to set up, present, and break down. It is very important that you work out any technical glitches you have before you come to class. Your actual presentation must be at least five minutes. Remember there needs to be a verbal or performance element to this. Bring me a typed, printed script the day of your presentation. At the end of each presentation we will take 2 minutes to email responses: what were the presentations strengths? what were its weaknesses?

Your presentation can be created in either iMovie or PowerPoint. Remember, you can't transfer workable iMovie files. If you are working in iMovie, export your piece before you come to class so can it can be transferred and played on the class projector. Add some sounds or music too!

Do a trial run of your presentation with the exact file you are planning on using in class to make sure everything is working as it should.

Good luck!

Retouching



Scan the available magazines at a resolution that will enable you to make at least an 8"x10" print. Then using the tools discussed in class, retouch your scan so it looks like a new print. Post both the original scan and your retouched version.
