Time Capsule Video proposal instructions.
You will be creating a Covid-19 Time Capsule Video.

Like discussed with our journals, we are living through a historical time. Using your journal entries and your life experience, you will be creating a 3-4 minute Time Capsule Video. To create a time capsule, you will need to complete a series of mini-lessons and assignments before you can start filming. Friday is your first video lesson, so don't start filming yet!

The first part of this project is your video proposal.

Write 1-2 paragraphs (5-7 sentences) describing what your Covid-19 Time Capsule Video will look like and what you will include.

Include details such as:
Which entries will you use from your journal?
If you plan on using something other than your journal, what would that be?
Will your time capsule have a story or narrative element? (Are you turning your journals into a story about you and your experience? Or a story about a typical teen during this time?)
Will there be other people in your video?
What will you be using to film your video?
What software do you have to create your video?
What makes your time capsule video interesting?
Think about your audience; what would they like to see in a time capsule?

Submit your proposal by Thursday May 7th.

Last Day is Thursday!!
