7th Grade

7th grade students will continue to refine their communication skills.  Students will be introduced to photo editing and manipulation in Photoshop.  Students will complete several workshops on Photoshop tools and effects.  During this process, students will practice their photo editing skills by using stock photographs provided by the instructor.  As a culminating project, students will take their own photos and edit them for presentation to the class.

Additionally, students will begin the basics of scripting and video editing.  Students will research and form a script that highlights events that have happend in history on their birthday.  Then, the students will have the opportunity to record the video using a teleprompter.  Finally, students will edit the movie and apply chroma-key effects to the green screen background for a finished product.
