Think of all the ways you can tell a story.  This reminds me of the PBS  ad.  Don't know if the guy ever saw it.  You know what they say . . . many people can think a good thought at the same time.  Think of all the inventions or scientific breakthroughs that happened simultaneously but at different places on the planet.  Anyway  . . .

These guys were near the CVS at Glenmont Shopping Center.

I accidentally erased this post this morning and have put it up again.  Sorry to the students who posted comments; however, you will need to be more explicit in the post.  YOU MUST listen to the public radio commentary at the bottom of the video.  Look for the audio bar.  Much info in there that is extremely interesting.

How can we use this?  Write a comment.

Please watch this to view the construction of a video package that is pretty typical for conventional tv news magazine shows.

Does this package deliver?  Why or Why not?

SHOW AND NEWSPAPER EXEMPLAR

Cool example of sound and slide show for show

TV class. . . this is your future.  Many of our pieces will be done like the video with this news article from The Christian Science Monitor.  The reporter used ProTools for the audio and then imported it into I-Movie and created a slide show.

This is the kind of package I am talking about for the the newspaper and the announcements.  However, probably shorter in length.

•  Great audio
• Compelling sound.
• Storyline that  runs throughout.     
• CAN YOU THINK OF COOL IDEAS FOR THIS?  Post a comment on this.
