U of M SMART COMMONS - Video Help
Video Projects
Essential Components of the Video
* Total length: 30 to 90 seconds
* Start with a title screen (2- 5 seconds in length)
* Body of the video
* End: A screen that shows the names of the individuals involved with the project
and “credits” (who did what).
* Limited use of music is permissible, but should not dominate the overall
message
* must be creative
* must contain "good science"
All videos must be published to YouTube
What to turn in: Send me an email that contains the URL for the YouTube video, and also a short description of your video. If there is more than one person in your group, you must tell me what each person did in the production process.
You may elect to use your own video equipment, or you may choose to use the U of M’s equipment available at the U of M Smart Learning Commons: [http://smart.umn.edu/]
Professional video projects are not ad-libbed (the dialog is not made up on the spot); a well-written script is essential. You will not have to turn in a script, but you should have one!
