video storyboard

Find and embed a video in your blog that promotes an issue regarding digital citizenship, safety or Success in School.

Then think about how you might make your own video on the same topic. Write a storyboard on your blog telling me how you would plan out your shots and scenes and what would happen during each scene. When writing a storyboard always think about what the camera is seeing.

Pick a topic and tell a story:

I think it would be really interesting to do a video about cyber bullying.

scene 1) a kid at school complains about another kid who is a 'nerd' and ignores him because of that

scene 2)the bully goes home and writes on his blog about this kid he really doesn't like and that annoys him and writes things that are not true on the blog

scene 3)
the nerd becomes isolated and doesn't understand why his "friends" don't talk to him but the reason is that the bully is spreading rumors about him

scene 4) the nerd finds the bully's blog because somebody tipped him off and and gets upset and starts to become withdrawn

scene 5) the nerd commits suicide (the nerd will just fade out of the picture not actually be shown dead)

scene 6) the bully regrets writing the blog but knows its too late and starts an anti-cyberbullying campaign (cue credits and final message)
