Work: individually

Time: 1 week (50 minutes)

Objectives: Produce a video 2 to 3 minutes in length in which you introduce yourself in Spanish.

NOTE: 20 POINTS WILL BE DEDUCTED FROM THE FINAL GRADE OF YOUR PROJECT IF YOUR VIDEO a) IS LONGER THAN 4 MINUTES AND/OR HAS LONG PAUSES, b) IF YOU USE ENGLISH, c) IF SOMEBODY ELSE NARRATES YOUR VIDEO.

1.Create a video or a picture story about yourself.
2.You have to say hello and mention the following: your name, where you are from, where you live, your age, what you study, and any other relevant information. Use Spanish only.
3.Don't forget to save your video in your e-portfolio with the name Proyecto 1, or Yo, or your name.

Suggestions:
Imagine that you are introducing yourself to new friend from a Spanish speaking country. Write a paragraph about yourself, or pretend to have a conversation with a classmate. Decide if you will use pictures or video. If you choose to use pictures and audio, record the audio and then add the pictures by using Photo Story or iMovie. The Media Center has microphones and audio recording software, webcams, as well as word processors.

You may use PowerPoint instead of Photostory.

OFF [Only For Fun]: Shoot the video or take the pictures at home, at a party, at the park, or outside your dorm. You may include your friends, family members, or pets. Use your favorite music in your video.
