This week students will be learning all about Vlogging.  Vlogging is extremely similar to blogging, which is where people post information or ideas on a web site.  The main difference being that the medium is a video instead of text.  Many people think of vlogging as a video blog.   It enables users to share thoughts, feelings, and information with a visual platform.   Students w ill be producing a Vlog. Your VLog will relay your experiences and reactions of our current situation of being quarantined. I understand that you may be limited with your shooting and/or editing capabilities from home but you've got to use whatever you've got available to you. Use your phone, computer or video camera to record. You are welcome to use any editing software also. Some suggestions are iMovie or WeVideo.

I am so excited to begin another semester here at Pebblebrook High School and I am thrilled to have you in my class. Video Production is a fun class, full of learning and hands on activities. This course will teach students the basics of camera functions, video editing and filmmaking. Students will work individually and in groups to write, shoot, and edit their own projects. Sample student projects during the semester include PSA’s, commercials, short films, music video and interview segments. Videos are screened during class throughout the semester to enhance the critique process. Students will learn to edit videos using the Adobe Premiere Pro software. https://www.first.edu/3-reasons-to-learn-video-production-at-a-film-school/

Career and technical education will help your child to be more than just an average student. Career and technical education can give your child what’s needed to succeed for life: technical skills, academic skills and employability skills. In addition, career and technical education helps students see how what they’re learning applies to the needs of employers. Regardless of whether students are headed for college or the workforce, this type of education will help them prepare for the future. In fact, college-bound students can get job experiences to help them define their career plans, identify an appropriate course of study and help pay for tuition. Just think of the benefits your child will receive by gaining not only a solid foundation in academics, but also hands-on, technical experience and know-how.
