Pd 4 Peer Critique Thursday April 24th

Before we proceed any further, we're going to look critically at one another's work and give feedback.  We'll take 20 minutes to do this.  Leave this blog post visible on your Desktop so that your Critic can follow the directions below.

When you have completed the critique, turn it in to me.  I will read it, grade it, and then give it to the student.

This is an 8-point written assignment, and is mandatory.

1.  Get a blank sheet of paper, a pen/pencil and a set of headphones.
2. Choose a peer's work to critique.  Sit at their computer.
3. You will view their edited film and answer the questions below, in writing.

DO NOT make changes to their project, their Desktop or work environment.  Any changes, deletions, additions to a peer's work or modifications to their workstation will result in a failing grade for the project and a written referral.  Respect the sanctity of others' work.

Peer Critique---Set up your Paper to look like this:

Your Name:

Name of Peer Editor (person whose work you are viewing)

1.   Describe the project that they have built:  How well does the story "flow" visually? (In other words, how well do pictures tell the story?)  Explain your response.  (3 sentences)
2.  Describe a point in the project where either the Video or Audio needs some work.  How would you suggest they improve this point? (2 sentences)
3. Describe an element of their edit that you really like---a special effect, foley, edited sequence, etc.---and explain why you like it.  (2 sentences)
4.  Explain whether or not you like their version of the movie, and why.  Give specific, constructive examples---nothing mean or malicious. (3 sentences)
