What to do for April 2

For next week, read the "Rest of the semester" memo posted below. Mark your calendars. I've redone it once because I thought the last day of school was the May 14 (duh), so let me know if I messed anything up. You will really want to make good use of that time -- suddenly it's not that far away.

Let's set a project benchmark for next week as something concrete for your project that you can show me. We'll have conferences next week in which we will be able to look at or listen to whatever you have. So the benchmark will be a a few minutes of edited video, five minutes of edited audio, or 25 stills (unedited) or some combination of those. (Remember, your project must include at least audio and video or audio and stills, or a combination of the three.) The benchmark is a little loosey-goosey by necessity, but be sure to have a significant block of something concrete we can discuss in conference.

Some of you will also have some inspirational video to present. See the "Rest of the semester" memo posted below for more on that.
