Individual Project - Last revision :)

My digital literacy project will document my experience using Final Cut Pro and Movie Maker. This project will discuss my use of Final Cut Pro, Movie Maker, and podcasts, but will be taped with a video camcorder and edited in Adobe Premiere. Integrating these forms of media will express my digital literacy while also narrating my comprehension of these various technologies.

The project may not explicitly address vocabulary from class, but the concepts will be evident through the way the project is arranged. The project will be organized in segments to address the steps I took in learning the programs.

The projected time it will take for me to complete this assignment will be approximately a month. The reason this project will be so time consuming is because I will have to record myself while in the MATRF lab using the Mac computer since I do not own one; also, I can only check out a video camcorder for a twenty-four hour period. Since I will be learning the program and recording, I will end up with more material than I need. I will also have to write a script to accompany my taping. Therefore, it is somewhat difficult to create an accurate timeline for this assignment. I will be tasked with both taping and learning the programs while also determining what footage to discard in order to make the documentary relevant.
