Video Clip Song Remix Project
You will need to find a movie or TV show clip that you want to use and you will be creating a Remix song based on the dialog in that clip. Each song must be a a minimum of 60 seconds long. The 'lyrics" must make sense and you will need some kind of chorus that is clear to your audience.

Group Album Project:
You have decided to start your own music group with a couple of your classmates (4-5 students per group - see embedded file to the right to view group assignments). For this project, you will join forces with your band mates and create an album filled with all original audio productions that you create in GarageBand. Your music group will also design an album cover, and back cover with track list and artist, using Photoshop.
Each group member must create TWO original audio productions in GarageBand. You will use the loops provided by the software. Each individual song must end up being at least 1:30 long. Collaborate with your group members to make sure all of your group's songs fall under the same genre of music! Each group member must also take part in designing the album cover and track list in Photoshop.
After your group has completed all of the original songs and designed the album cover, use GarageBand to export each song in MP3 format and give it a descriptive name. Place all of the songs and designs into 1 folder to turn into Scales. Check the rubric provided below to make sure your group's album is meeting all of the project requirements! Submit your finalized group album to Scales for grading. Finally, complete the Peer Evaluation Survey located to the right. |

Create a Foley Story Project:
Using the Loops and sounds in Garage Band create a 60 second scene of sounds to create a story with sound effects and music. You can even retell a story of a MOVIE or a SCENE from A MOVIE that you are familiar with. IT CANNOT BE A MADE UP STORY. Do not use any dialogue, only instrumental and sound effects. Use multiple layers to enhance the way your Foley sounds, sometimes to achieve the sound you want it takes many layers. You should have sounds layered during the entire 60 seconds. Use the rubric to check your work before turning it in. You will turn this in as a MP3 file to Scales into your class folder as Last name+First name+FoleyMovie.
