Now it's your turn to plan and film your video!

Your team’s video should be no longer than 6 minutes.
Your video is due NOVEMBER 29, and no late videos will be accepted.
- Every team member should have a role, either in front of the camera or behind!
- Remember that creativity is highly encouraged!
- Download the WAC Rubric to make sure you have included everything the judges will be looking for ------>
- Practice!! The more comfortable you are with your part, the better it will be and the more fun you will have.
- Record your video - keep it under SIX MINUTES!
- Be sure everyone can be seen and clearly heard, and that your visuals are large enough to see/read easily in the video. Check subtitles for spelling and grammar to be sure your meaning is interpreted correctly.
