Step 1: Begin by recording the Script using any app on their phone, personal computer, or campus computers. I suggest recording the script in a bathroom, or another secluded place that they will have access in order to avoid background noise. I also emphasize listening to the audio after they record it on the device, and before they upload it to the Video Editing software. Once completed, they will email the document to the device utilized to assemble the video. The assignment is a minimum of 10 minutes, so the recording of the audio is a good benchmark for meeting the assignment guidelines for length. The completed audio file will also function as the student’s guide for where to place the Digital sources in the timeline.
