Final Assignment:
Video and accompanying 12 x18 poster promo for your video/promo.
Individually create a video campaign/promo that you will eventually post to YouTube, Blog, Facebook and/or Vimeo for one of these two socially important organizations.
Both organizations are somewhat related in theme but I wanted to give you some leverage about how you wish to address your own creative voice regarding the two different topics.
The video you produce should be approximately 30seconds-1 minute in length and should be scripted, shot and edited by yourself. You can hire actors, hire musicians, use typography, animations, stop motion, or create all of it from your own point of view within the camera itself.
Our final critique will be one that reveals your video and accompanying poster that markets your video. Each of you will introduce your video and it should be accompanied with a film/video poster that might publicize your intention or story line. You should us whichever organizations logo on your poster as well.
The timely topics of bullying and teen suicide have affected each of us in some capacity. Either firsthand experience or as observer. As a storyteller you must convey your thoughts regarding the subject matter you so choose.
We'll discuss this in class with more depth.
How does teen suicide and bullying relate to you in your own life.
What are the stories you have to tell and what would be your affirmation regarding this seemingly controversial and escalating suicide for all teens, not just LGBT teens, and the youth of our nation.
Your videos can be interviews or purely fictional. It could be animation or shot entirely through the lens of a camera. It can have music, natural sound or complete silence. It's all up to you. Words are powerful and if your imagery connects to your words then it can be even more so powerful given your point of view. Remember that each of you have the ability to change someone's life with your point of view.
Do not hold back.
