Great Gatsby Video Project
Working Collaboratively
Open up a new Google Doc and share it to the others in your group. You will all be able to edit the Doc at the same time,.
Special Notes on Video Projects!
You may shoot your entire video live, or you may find that adding video clips (for example, original historical footage) helps your project.
You can use Media Connect to find videos to work with. You might download them and use clips, or you might simply use them to inform your video. For example, watching footage of flappers can help you decide what to wear for your video. Media Connect also has pictures and you can use Soundzabound for sound clips.
Books
There is a cart of books pulled specifically for this project at the back of the room. Be sure to write down the information you need for your citations. If someone in your group has a smartphone, snap a picture of the pages you're using so you'll have the information at home.
