Creating a Script/Storyboard for How-to Videos
iMovie Tips: Audio- Lowering audio (timeline and tools)
- Fades
- Engaging Ducking
- Ducking manually (Range tool available below the Volume line)
- Manual keyframes (Option-click on volume line; 4 keyframes)
- Using your camera for recording audio and adding to timeline

Focus Point #1: Working with video and kids at the same time - Divide by Grade Groups
- Discuss with Vets ways of doing projects that works for them
- Whole class
- small multiple groups (several projects going on)
- Video teams (small, dedicated group to produce a single video)
- Rotating students into different jobs
- After school/lunch video groups
- Mix and Match (e.g. whole group for some aspects, dedicated team for other aspects)
- Any and all Tips and Tricks you can think of
Film Featurette:
Focus Point #2: Discuss Script/storyboard for How-to videos - Decide which students will be involved in this step (probably could be whole class to build buy-in)
- Bulleted list of discrete steps to show/film
- Be complete, but don’t be foolish; which steps are crucial for this overview to work
- Final video should be AT MOST 5 min. or so, so you can’t show every little detail. Go back to the September Agenda and watch a couple of how-to’s to see what they put in (and how much detail was included) and what they left out
- Showing framing in storyboard panels
- Showing narration in storyboard panels
- decide if you’ll use voice-on-video (talking to camera) or
- voiceover or
- a combo (consider this)
- For next meeting: Sharing Script/storyboard for the chosen activity
Focus Point #3: Whole Group Discussion: How are you feeling at this stage? Questions about next time?
