Before it’s
time to start the controlled assessment campaign, we are going to do an
Apprentice-style activity to practise using some of the media technology you
will need for your coursework.
You will work
in teams of 2 or 3 people and you will have three weeks to complete all tasks.
Tasks
1.) Conducting primary research using
Survey Monkey.
2.) Taking and uploading photographs.
3.) Building a blog.
4.) Filming and editing a short film and
publishing it on your blog.
5.) Using the Coomber machine to create a
voice over for your film.
6.) Presenting a pitch.
Brief
The area behind the Lower School Gym is wasted. It is neither
a car-park nor a playground. With a little investment and some imagination it
could be regenerated to become a useful or much-loved resource for students.
Your task is to conduct research to find out what Lower
School students would like the area to be. You are then going to build a
website to show your findings and present your plan of action. The website
should include at least one photograph of
the area in its current state and a description or mock up diagram /
image of what the place will be like once it has been transformed. Your website will also include a very short
film (20 – 30 seconds) with voice over.
Once you have finished you will present your work to the
class as a pitch.
The most professional
project will win Starbucks and cakes for the winning team.
Everyone else will be fired!
