Dec 7, 2011 CTE Promo Video
You have been hired by the Career and Technical Education Director of Washington County to create a short (no more than 5 minutes) video that will help promote CTE classes. You will be creating a video with photographs and short video clips to promote the CTE classes at PVHS.
I have posted a link to the classes available at PVHS. Toward the bottom of the link is the CTE classes offered. Become familiar with these classes so that you can create a video that will inform and educate students about the things they may learn or do in these classes. In order to create a good video you must know your subject.
Requirements for the project:
1. Go to this link and learn about the CTE classes offered. You will need to go down toward the bottom of the page. They are listed by departments. Learn about the classes and what you might expect to learn or do.
2. You will cover each class in your video. You may not have pictures for everything or even video, so until you do you will work on the classes that have video and photographs. Be sure to leave places for the other classes. You will receive additional video on Friday.Be sure you have at least one slide for each class, so you should have more.
Some classes may not have video or pictures to use, this is where you would find images and put text explaining the class.
Example: Interior Design, find a picture of one of the current Design on a Dime and work the slide or slides that way.
3. There are 4 flash drives on my desk that have some of the photographs and videos you will need. The folder is labeled CTE Promo Video. Copy this folder to your Desktop and start your video.
4. Use transitions and text. Double and Triple check for spelling and Grammar errors. You will only receive half credit if you have a spelling error or a grammar error. Be sure that you have good use of transitions. This video will run on it's own in the halls on the TV monitors.
You might start your video with something like "Why take CTE classes?" Or "Like hands on learning? Then you might be interested in these classes." My suggestion is you construct your video by departments and then cover each class offered in that department.
5. The last thing you will do is put in music. But that will not be till the end. Please do not do this until you are completely finished with your video.
The most important thing is to be creative and remember your target audience is you, so make it interesting to you.
