Digital Animation Video Clip Project - Part Duex!

Today you will be using your scene to create a 75-slide (minimum) animated scene. Eventually you will EXPORT your slides as Images (JPEG) and using MS Movie Maker to create a Digital Animation with Music, Titles, and Credits.

FOR SOUND EFFECTS USE FREESOUND.ORG and AUDACITY!

STEP BY STEP Audacity Instructions:

Link to Audacity Tutorial:

https://manual.audacityteam.org/man/tutorial_recording_computer_playback_on_windows.html

Step 1.  Open a website (YouTube, Freesound, etc.) with the media you want a sample of.

Step 2.  Click on the Audacity shortcut from the Windows Programs Button.

Step 3.  Once open, you will need to click each window so they are "split-screen" (you can view both windows on the computer screen at once).

Step 4.  Make sure your settings on Audacity are set to record from "Windows WASABI", Speakers both Input and Output, and Stereo Quality (not Mono)!

Step 5.  Press RECORD (Red Dot) button on Audacity, then quickly press PLAY button on the Internet Media.  You should see the levels on Audacity jump to match the playback on  your Internet Media.  When you have recorded enough media for your project, click STOP (Black Square) button on Audacity, and stop your Internet Media playback.

Step 6.  Click FILE and EXPORT on Audacity.  Choose either MP4 or WAV from the list, click/enter the location you are saving the file too (preferably your desktop for easy reference), and click SAVE.  This will export your file for use in other media.  You should preview the file in Audacity prior to exporting it if you like, or once exported you should click the new file created and make sure it plays on your computer's music program (ITunes, MS Media Player, VLC, etc.)

Mr. Scribner's Digital Animation Examples:


MAKE YOUR DIGITAL ANIMATION INTO A MOVIE CLIP USING OpenShot:
Step 1. Open your project in Google Slides.  Click FILE, Click DOWNLOAD, Click Microsoft PowerPoint.  Once Downloaded, Open the file in PowerPoint.

Step 2. With PowerPoint open, click FILE, EXPORT and choose CHANGE FILE TYPE.  Click on JPEG and click SAVE AS.  Choose your Desktop as the destination, adjust the filename if necessary, and click SAVE.  When the window appears, click ALL SLIDES.  A file folder should appear on your Desktop.  Your slides are now images in that folder.

Step 3. Open the folder with your slide images.  Select all of them.  Open OpenShot on your computer.  Make sure that both of these are in split-screen mode.  Click all of the slides and drag them into OpenShot.  You will be asked if you want to IMPORT them as an Image Sequence (Video Clip), Click YES.  You can now drag your Video Clip down into your project.

Step 4. Using OpenShot Video Editor, you must create a Digital Animation "Short-Film" by making each image "flash" for around 1/2-second each. This will give the impression that the images are animated. You should add Titles, Credits, and a short burst of music to finish the film.

  • Once OpenShot is started, drag your sound effects and music files into the PROJECT FILES Window.
  • Drag your images (individually or as an image sequence/video clip) into the PROJECT FILES Window.
  • Drag any video clips, or other media (Production Logo, or Video Logo from you previous projects) into the PROJECT FILES Window.
  • Create any TITLES/END-CREDITS you might need in OpenShot from the menu items.  For this specific project you only need to add the Titles outlined below.
  • Assemble your PROJECT Files in Tracks 0-4 as follows:
    • Titles and End Credits in Track 4
    • Single Images in Track 3
    • Video Clips in Track 2
    • Audio Sound-Effects in Track 1
    • Music / Background Audio in Track 0
  • Place/Adjust your files any way you like.  Add Transitions/Effects as needed.  Preview your project in the window provided (Preview May Not Work Right).  NOTE:  If you play the project and cannot hear the audio, Click SAVE Project (to Desktop), Close/Exit OpenShot, Restart OpenShot making sure your headphones are not plugged in.  Once started, choose FILE and RECENT from the menu, and click on the first choice.  Your video project should open, and the audio should play in the preview through the speaker on the computer you are using (DO NOT PLUG IN HEADPHONES AGAIN UNTIL AFTER YOU EXPORT IT).
  • Once your Video Project is complete, click FILE and EXPORT.  In the window that pops-up make sure you change the name of your project, and choose the Desktop as the Export location.  YOU NEED TO EXPORT YOUR PROJECT AS AN MP4 FOR CREDIT.
  • Once your PROJECT is on the Desktop as an MP4 file, Open your Google Drive and (using split screen again) click and drag the file to your Google Drive.  You will see the Upload progress in a pop-up window.  Once it is uploaded to your Google Drive, double-click the file to open it.  In the upper right corner you will see three (3) dots, click them, click SHARE, and enter Mr. Scribner's (hscribner@ccs.us) email to submit your project for credit.  MAKE SURE YOU UPLOAD THE MP4 VIDEO FILE FOR CREDIT, NOT THE OSP (OpenShot Project File).

YOU MUST IMPORT AT LEAST ONE (1) SOUND EFFECT/MUSIC AND ADD IT TO THE ANIMATION PRIOR TO SAVING IT!  (You can use freesound.org and audacity to record sound effects or music for use in this project.)

Your TITLES should include the Name of the Video and "by (Your Initials)

Public Service Announcement (OpenShot) Video Project PREP DAY

"There are many different definitions for a public service announcement (PSA) or public service ad, but the simplified version of PSAs are messages in the public interest disseminated by the media without charge, with the objective of raising awareness, changing public attitudes and behaviour towards a social issue." - Wikipedia Definition 


Here Is The BEST Source for Information on how to MAKE A Public-Service Announcement:

PROJECT STEPS:
1.  READ ALL DIRECTIONS ON THIS POST BEFORE BEGINNING PROJECT
2.  Choose a PARTNER and a TOPIC
  a.  Use resources online to choose a topic.  Research ideas for your project.
3.  Create a NEW Google Document Named "



Over the next few days you will be completing a Public Service Announcement using OpenShot Video Editor.  Directions are listed below>



TODAY: You will work with your assigned partner to CHOOSE A TOPIC, COLLECT OR MAKE PHOTOS FOR CONTENT, DECIDE ON MUSIC, and RESEARCH AT LEAST 4 FACTS!




Getting Started (from Center For DIGITAL Education Website)
  1. Choose your topic. Pick a subject that is important to you, as well as one you can visualize. Keep your focus narrow and to the point. More than one idea confuses your audience, so have one main idea per PSA.
  2. Time for some research - you need to know your stuff! Try to get the most current and up to date facts on your topic. Statistics and references can add to a PSA. You want to be convincing and accurate.
  3. Consider your audience. Are you targeting parents, teens, teachers or some other social group? Consider your target audience's needs, preferences, as well as the things that might turn them off. They are the ones you want to rally to action. The action suggested by the PSA can be almost anything. It can be spelled out or implied in your PSA, just make sure that message is clear.
  4. Grab your audience's attention. You might use visual effects, an emotional response, humor, or surprise to catch your target audience. Be careful, however, of using scare tactics. Attention getters are needed, but they must be carefully selected. For example, when filming a PSA about controlling anger, a glass-framed picture of a family can be shattered on camera. This was dramatic, but not melodramatic. Staging a scene between two angry people to convey the same idea is more difficult to do effectively.
  5. Create a script and keep your script to a few simple statements. A 30-second PSA will typically require about 5 to 7 concise assertions. Highlight the major and minor points that you want to make. Be sure the information presented in the PSA is based on up-to-date, accurate research, findings and/or data.
  6. Storyboard your script.
  7. Film your footage and edit your PSA.
  8. Find your audience and get their reaction. How do they respond and is it in the way you expected? Your goal is to call your audience to action. Are they inspired?

Links For Music (MP3's)

PSA Bibliography Google Document Requirements
You and your partner must CREATE and SHARE a Google Document with Mr. S (hscribner@ccs.us) that has a paragraph about the reason you chose your topic, the names of the two students who worked on your PSA, and the six references that you used to find your facts. The following format must be used:

The Video Logo 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 Video Logo (Movie Marquis) in OpenShot Video Editor. 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!

To: hscribner@ccs.us
Subject:  MUSIC

Body of Email: How Does Music Affect You In Your Daily Life? How Often Do You Listen To Music? What Is Your Favorite Type Of Music, And Why? What Was The Last Song You Listened To, And How Did It Make You Feel?



SOUNDATION PROJECT:
We will be using Soundation to create unique, and customized pieces of music. You must follow the directions below, and export your music as a .WAV-File so you can use it in an upcoming project. Please follow the directions below to begin creating music with Soundation.com. If you have already used this program, it is your obligation in class to help others. We will discuss the Essential Questions below in class prior to working on Soundation.com. HAVE FUN WITH THIS PROJECT!

ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS

YOU MAY ONLY USE SOUNDATION. YOU MAY NOT LISTEN TO MP3's OR OTHER COMMERCIALLY AVAILABLE MUSIC.

Today is your day to familiarize yourself with how the program works, and how to navigate around the different toolboxes. Save anything that you want to keep by uploading files to your Google Drive or save them to your desktop. Because other students use these computers, there is no guarantee that your work will be here tomorrow.


SOUNDATION.COM INTRODUCTION: Open the Soundation.com Application. I have included a short VIDEO from YouTube to help you work independently. Once I have finished the demonstration in class, use your headphones to listen to your work while you create a personal track. Try to create a track that is over 25 seconds in length, and includes any of the instruments listed in the Loop Browser. You will be using the final cut of this track you are creating as the background for the Marquise Project in Microsoft Movie Maker later in the Marking Period. Make sure it sounds like you want it too. When you are done look under the FILE section to Export Song To Disk as a WAV File and save it. You must upload your file to your GOOGLE DRIVE and SHARE it with MR. S for credit. Please upload the file to the DROPBOX Link below as well:


When you have finished the project, use the GRADING RUBRIC below to figure out your score on this project. Additional learning should include working on completing the Music Lyric Project listed below, or use SOUNDATION.COM (Link Below) to create another unique song and EXPORT it as a .wav file for use later. Have Fun With This Project!



Step By Step Instructions
  • Log In To Computer and Go To Soundation.com
  • Click on STUDIO and select either Flash Version or Chrome Version.
  • Create Music with at least 3 loops (minimum)
  • When finished, Click FILE and "Export .WAV File" to your Desktop
