Nature+PhotoStory!

__Nature PhotoStory!__
You and your partners will add one final element to your project pages. You'll work together to take nature photos around the USM campus that will be arranged in a slide show movie using PhotoStory or MovieMaker. You'll have a simple nature sound track that will play in the background as your photos appear. Final projects will be uploaded to YouTube and embedded in your webpage. I will have an example for you to see in the next few days.

__**Project requirements:**__ 1. 15-20 photos depicting nature around our school. Possibilities for your photos include flowers, trees, grasses, plants, clouds/sky. Try to be creative and clever with your shots. Interesting angles and camera positions always make for unique photos. Close-ups, without zooming, tend to produce nice photos as well. 2. Photos should have a transition between them. Your total project should be 60-75 seconds in length. 3. Your photo story needs a soundtrack. Soundtracks can be created directly in the PhotoStory software. The soundtrack should fit the mood of the photos. 4. Create an additional page with a link to that page for your video. 5. Your last photo should have a text on it that lists who the PhotoStory is by. 6. Create a project file on the **J** drive in the **Nature PhotoStory!** folder which is located in the **Montagne** folder. Please name this with the first name and last initial of each member of your group. **Example: mattmwillp**.
