It will include one stand-in, footage pertaining to the story, a clear concise voiceover, and a closing with still of 10 seconds. 700 700 The production team will consist of a cameraperson, and reporter. External mics can be used, neat clothing will be worn and proper lighting will be used. All scripting, storyboards and prop sheets must be completed and approved before taping. 700 700 700 The purposes of this exercise are as follows: 700 700 1. Learn how to develop a preplan or script 700 2. Learn how to set shots (shoot to edit) 700 3. Learn how to add sound tracks 700 4. Learn how to use different tools specific to the program 700 5. Learn how to edit 700 6. Learn how to prepare set and props 700 700 700 You will be evaluated on the following points: 700 700 1.
