Emmitt Antwine Audacity Moviemaking Assignment

Emmett Antwine discusses three projects for classroom use: recorded interviews, plot synopses in 60 seconds, and stop-motion animations in Google Slides. Recorded interviews can be conducted in person or virtually using platforms like Flipgrid to capture diverse perspectives and experiences. Plot synopses in 60 seconds offer concise summaries of movies or novels, helping students develop communication skills. Stop-motion animations in Google Slides provide a creative project using step-by-step tutorials and tools like Screencasting. These projects make learning exciting and improve communication skills in the classroom. Hey y'all, my name is Emmett Antwine and I'm excited to talk to you guys about three different projects to use in your classroom. Let's begin. First, we're going to talk about recorded interviews. These can be in person or virtually. The source is Ditch That Textbook. In this particular example, you can utilize a video response platform like Flipgrid to conduct interviews with people around you or across the globe. These interviews can be conducted in person with both parties visible in the camera frame or virtually where individuals record responses to questions using the shared Flipgrid link. Interviews can range from serious discussions to light-hearted or even fictional interactions. And this is important because it provides a versatile approach to capturing diverse perspectives and experiences. An example could be interviewing a park ranger about the history of Ellis Island. Now let's talk about the second example, which is a plot synopsis in 60 seconds. This source is from Open Thinking. This example includes numerous entertaining plot synopsis videos that can be found on platforms like YouTube. It offers concise summaries of Hollywood movies or novels in just 60 seconds. And this is important because it engages in projects like these can help students develop essential communication skills with digital technologies. You can modify this lesson or this project to fit different content areas like math and science. For example, in math, you can use or allow students to create 60-second videos that can explain problems of transformation. Finally, let's discuss the recording of stop-motion animations in Google Slides. This source is from Ditch the Textbook. If you're looking to expand your screen recording beyond presentation slides, you should consider this project. It provides useful websites and apps for creative projects. For instances, you can use Google Slides to create stop-motion animations by following the step-by-step tutorial on this website. It involves creating slides, duplicating them, and making incremental movements and repeating the process to animate the scenes. You can also create these animations and use these tools or show the tools rather with tools such as Screencasting or Screencastify or Screencast-o-matic. Finally, it's important to recognize that these tools can be used to make your classroom and make activities that are exciting for the students and it can definitely help them with their communication skills. Thank you, guys, so much for listening and you guys have a nice day. Thank you.
