Projects due at noon.

I am happy to give feedback on drafts sent to

me by noon Wednesday.

Final Project Details


The goal of this project is to produce a

multimedia piece that you will be proud to show


future employers. That means that it needs to be
as professional and as compelling as possible for
that reason, above all else. The job market is
increasingly competitive, as you know, and
people will want to see your work rather than
how many points you got in a class.

Final Project Details


Post your final project to the class blog. The title of the

post should include: Your Name Final Project:


Headline.

The headline is important, so make sure to include

one.

Post videos to YouTube or Vimeo first and then paste

the embed code into the blog post. Vimeo is


recommended as it has higher quality.

Final Project Details


There is no set length for the final project, but

most will generally run between 2:00 and 4:00


minutes.

Your final project will be a work of journalism.

That is, it will tell a story, (ideally a compelling


story) not simply document an event, just as we
have been talking about all semester. I'll be
looking for a hook and a story arc. I'll also be
looking to see that you've followed all of the
composition and technical guidelines we've
covered. There will be significant penalty for late
work.
