Year 8 Extension lesson

Yasas,

Your task is to create a short slideshow showing the development of the electric guitar.
Use images from the web and only a few words to create a movie in iMovie. Make sure your finished product ends up on Mr Billiards' USB.

Try here for some information on electric guitars as well as your own research.

Yea 8 MOVIES - No sound

Yasas,


I have put copies of the movies without sound up in a link list on the right of this blog. Click on the link to go to the site and download the movies.


Remember that you are creating the music to compliment the pictures you see on the screen. Think about how the music makes the viewer feel, think, suspect.
