Music Videos

Sorry David, one more thing...a "heads up" for you....I had a friend in another school try to have her students create music videos this year - for the past three they've created narratives. Anyway, they had to write their own lyrics (a social cause), and create their own music...she wasn't pleased with the fact that students where "shy" when it came to being in the band and being video taped. She said they weren't as good as creating a regular 5 minute movie. Changes she would make: 1. Don't mandate all members to be on tape. 2. Make sure you have at least one STAR in each group. Perhaps survey who would like to be the Canadian Idol winner, then surround them with "production" people. Anyway, I would like to try the music video one day too, even if she is try to talk me out of it. Good luck with yours! I'd love to hear how they turn out.
