North+Africa+and+the+Middle+East+Video+Project

Last week you began reading about North Africa and the Middle East. To learn about this unit you will each select a topic concerning this region and create a video to present to the class.

Details regarding the video:
 * Length:
 * Must be 3-5 minutes long
 * Individual pictures should not show for more than 20 seconds
 * 10 seconds of your sources slide can count towards your time
 * Presentation:
 * Presentation should incorporate pictures, text, and audio
 * Pictures should not be pixelated
 * Text should be easy to read
 * Photos and audio should correspond with the topic
 * Also, be sure your audio is timed right (in other words don't be explaining the plant life of the Sahara Desert while you are showing pictures of the animals in the Sahara Desert)
 * You must have at least 30 seconds of yourself speaking for audio
 * Be aware of how boring your presentation will be with only pictures and text though!!
 * Your presentation should include a title slide, body slides explaining your topic, and a slide at the end listing your sources
 * Audio should be clear and easy to understand
 * You should not just read the text that you have on each picture, the text should only emphasize what you are saying
 * Projects will be viewed in class __**Tuesday November 8th**__

Suggested Procedure:
 * 1) Research your topic
 * 2) Don't just go look for pictures, you will need to not only explain the topic in your presentation but also answer questions in class after your presentation
 * 3) Make a folder and compile pictures to be used in your presentation
 * 4) Prepare a script
 * 5) Prepare text to be displayed on pictures
 * 6) Combine pictures, text and voice recording
