MICROSOFT MOVIE MAKER (WeVideo.com) Movie Marquis Project Directions

You will be making a number of movies with Windows Movie Maker during this class. Starting later this week you will work on creating a Public Service Announcement (PSA) with a partner. Start thinking of ideas now so you will be able to pick something for next week.

Watch the following clip on your own to get ideas about your Personal Movie Marquis. This is a short movie clip (10-15 seconds) that you will add to the end of your PSA to "sign" it. The Movie Marquis you are creating should be a reflection of your personality, and is intended to let people know who created the movie it follows. It can be used at the end or the beginning of a movie. I want you to pretend you are creating a Movie Production Studio and give some thought to the kind of movies and messages you would like to support. Be creative and have fun with this project. It can be serious, funny or anything you want it to be. Please make sure you use the clip you created in Soundation for this project. You may find pictures and other video clips online or sign out a camera. I have a limited amount of equipment, so you will have to share.



Please create a Movie Marquis in Windows Movie Maker. It should be 10 to 15 seconds long and use audio, pictures/video, titles and effects. You must create your music for this project with Soundation.

YOU MAY NOT USE COMMERCIALLY AVAILABLE MUSIC!  
When you have edited the movie and created it, please use the SAVE Movie Function to save the file and the video to the desktop. Upload that file to your Google Drive and share it with me for credit for the project.
