PurposeThis assignment is your opportunity to demonstrate the skills and techniques you have gained during this course.InstructionsThis final assignment is your chance to apply what you’ve learned so far to a project. You may develop this project from one of your previous assignments or you may start a new one. Whatever you decide, you must pick an option from one of the following three categories:ExperimentalNonfictionNarrative FictionYou can review examples of what each of these category types look like on the previous page, if you haven’t already.SOLO PROJECT OR GROUP WORKAdditionally, you have a choice between doing this final project alone or in a group. However, if you choose to do this with a group, you will accept that your grades will all be the same. Therefore, you need to communicate with your group members beforehand and throughout the project about expectations, workload. The process for each genre is a bit different, so please consider their process elements carefully when deciding on which option to pick and whether or not you want to work with a group. (You can see suggested group numbers in the descriptions below.)For example, the experimental and nonfiction prompts may not require as much pre-production activity but will require extensive time in the editing room. The narrative prompt has a heavier load of pre-production work, but will not take as much time in the editing room. Final projects must be submitted with titles and end credits. Whoever is submitting the group project must include a description of the prompt and names of all group members. If you are not submitting for your group, you still must make a text submission stating who has submitted for your group.Experimental (Solo Project)PRODUCTION PLANYou must submit a production plan (1-2 pages, single-spaced) that contains:Plan & Timeline (What will you do?

How will you reach them?CONTENTWorking with your partner(s), you will identify, research, schedule, film, and edit an investigative story (a 7-9 minute video) about a local social issue of your choice, or an issue that spans multiple places if this better suits location of your group members. This will be an interview-based project but should include observational footage/scenes to help illustrate the points you are trying to make. In addition, this project must include guiding voiceover segments performed in part on camera by a member of the production team. You should explain complex issues of policy, technology, scholarship, or science in terms that everyday people can understand. This package of stories may employ the style and voice of investigative journalism or advocacy. In either case, the stories should aim to serve the public interest by providing perspectives on the issue of choice. If working from a position of advocacy, you will need to articulate how you plan to release and share these videos, and how this relates to a broader strategic goal in relation to the social issue itself. The video must include a main title (the word) and end credits.Narrative Fiction (3-4 Students)PRODUCTION PLANYou must submit a production plan (1-2 pages, single-spaced) that contains:Plan & Timeline (What will you do?
