4. BASIC VIDEO QUASI-EXAMPLE Is an example because: –Content/script that was thorough Evidence of organization Conceptualization and planning is evident –Talking head content about ½ of movie –Transitions are fine –Titles –I can use it to supplement my instruction that I deliver face to face Is NOT an example because –Greatly exceeds syllabus length requirements (7:24) –Syllabus calls for large portion as still images; I have video instead –Soundtrack levels between talking head and video clips not consistent

5. BASIC VIDEO QUASI-EXAMPLE Intended as comedy –Fails broadly I had the two video segments for years –Assessment Police Doc student project –Summer Bunch Band In my early years here at CCSU I wrote the talking head segments as parody of introductions like on Masterpiece theatre Invented this idea of educational parody My acting chops and reading skills need work
