60 Second Video: Story Elements: Setting 


Storyboard for video and website:

60 seconds-Story Elements: Setting Storyboard




MMP Classroom Google Website layout:
In this particular activity I created two storyboards and then the 60 second video that depicts a story element using scratch as the connection. In my storyboard, I kept in mind a lot of the key aspects discussed in the text as well as the videos. Story boards are a way to "tell the story shot by shot" 
(Golombisky & Hagen, 2010). Story boards are a way to convey information to the reader about the key points of the video or the website that you are designing. I tried to consider the point of view in the first storyboard considering my target audience is younger learners. I decided to keep the audience as the "omniscient third person eye observing the story" that I told through my images  (Golombisky & Hagen, 2010). I considered the importance of transitions in my first and second storyboard  and maintained "continuity" which is "transitioning or segueing between shots and scenes"(Golombisky & Hagen, 2010). I considered how I wanted my shots to transition in the video to convey a specific meaning or focus on the subject matter. I also did so in my MMP classroom layout considering how my visitor will transition through each part to experience all the MMP classroom has to offer.
My video was a multimedia compilation that conveyed the concept of literacy to students using scratch software since this is my target for the MMP. I went for "pacing" that conveyed the most information to younger learners so some of my slides take longer to transition. I considered how to have my viewers" absorb and appreciate...slideshow content" by giving "them enough time to do so" (Golombisky & Hagen, 2010). I did also consider the video footage and how it would play into the overall flow of the multimedia presentation. I ensured that my video was short because "viewers can drop out in seconds" especially younger children(Golombisky & Hagen, 2010). Overall I think I created a multimedia experience for younger learners that conveys the concept of literacy using Scratch as the platform.

Hello Everyone! I decided to look closely at the Volkswagen commercial linked below: Volkswagen Force Commercial Analysis: I think that the purpose of this video is to connect to parents who have kids with wild imagination and anyone who has an affection for Star Wars. It is trying to sell a car to families in particular by creating the idea that a parent can help their child experience something new in a Volkswagen. It sells the idea of a family car that is different  because it can create an experience for the family that no other car can. It can create connections between a child and their parent in a new, whimsical way. The parent is not only connected to the child in the traditional way but becomes a part of this child's imagined world and love for Star Wars. The car commercial creates a reality of an ideal family setting with a child who is driven by imagination. On his quest for "mastery of the force" he is in constant battle with the objects around h...
