Objective: Complete a 1-2 minute multimedia project, on any topic and through whatever means you have available, that combines two or more forms of media that combine to convey a message or topic. Accompany your project with a 1-paragraph reflection where you reflect on the critical, creative and technical considerations you faced in the production process (see prompts below).
Project requirements
- You connect multimodal “sign systems”: Various media must work synergistically, working in tandem to express a message or topic.
- Music must be included in the project–either it plays in the background of your video recording, or you add it in post-production if you already have experience using tools like iMovie. Make do with whatever skillset you currently have.
- Your message or topic must be clear: We should be able to discern what your project is “about.”
- Yet, you should be striving to accomplish something unique: how can you depict your message in a creative and unexpected way?
- Can’t find/edit media assets? Hack a solution: This a good opportunity to demonstrate your creativity around technical hurdles.
Reflection requirements
Accompany your project with a 1-paragraph critical reflection:
- What was the message that you wanted to convey? How are two or more media forms working synergistically to express this message?
- Describe your prior experience. Are you fluent with music, image and/or video production currently, or are some of these areas new to you?
What to upload
- First, post your media file (.mov, .mp4, etc) to as a “Media Upload” to Kaltura. Include your critical reflection in the Description box. Use the naming convention Lab1_[Name]_[Title] as your file name.
- You’ll need to complete all the required fields and save the entry before you can select to publish it the Media Gallery for others in the class to view. This is a required step, so don’t skip it. (Note that the upload process needs to complete successfully for the “Published” option to be enabled.)
- Post your critical reflection paragraph as a text box submission within Canvas, and embed your Kaltura project into the text box by clicking on the Embed Kaltura Media button.
