Wave TV Episodes 10 and 11

Week 7

Wave TV 2014
Thanks to all the students who have put their hands up for next year's Wave TV. I'll send permission slips home with you next Thursday and will expect them back the following Thursday at the latest. No permission slip = no Wave TV. 

Episode 10
This has gone a little slower than expected. Most of the stories are in the project and we're working on credits and final edits. We've had one or two technical malfunctions such as incompatible movies from a non-mac computer, and trouble with editing and re-editing a tricky green screen story. Two stories were made then completely disappeared so we had to re-build them from We're getting pretty good at problem solving! 

This Thursday
9-9:45- Milly & Georgie- re-build the Gala story
9:45-10:30- Chatelle & Abby- finish the Uganda story. Mrs Haswell has emailed you additional information about her photos.
11-12:00- Jake & Troy- finish music & credits
12:00 onwards- Check permissions & final edit. Send to Vimeo. Post on the school website.

Episode 11

9-9:30- Jesper & Weston- Check through iMovie story. Firmly edit. Take out the really bumpy bits and make sure the overall message is clear for viewers.
9:30-10:30- Finn & Nic- Finish animation and build the story in iMovie.
11-11:30- Edit down the road patrol story.
11:30- 12:30- Kapa haka- Edit, edit, edit...
1:30 onwards. Final edits and tweaking.

Thanks to Jake & Troy for the music they've been creating for opening and closing episodes. It's great to see so many people such as Chenthi, Yasmine & Em creating their own creative background music in Garageband.

Term 4 Planning

If you are involved in making Episodes 9,10 or 11 please make sure you watch the blog and WOT so you know what to do. Come to all meetings you are expected at the times you are asked as we have fierce deadlines. 

Here are the dates for Term 4:
Week 1 Friday Oct 18
Week 2 Friday Oct 25
Week 3 Thursday 31 Oct & Friday 1 Nov
Week 5 Thurs 14 & Fri 15 Nov
Week 6 Thursday 21 & Friday 22 Nov
Week 7 Thursday 28 & Friday 29 Nov

Wave TV 3 is on all day this Friday, not Thursday as I said last week. Can Yasmine, Nyah, Georgie, Milly, Em, Georgia, Kai, Ben Carson, Harry Dunn, Melissa, Cyzck, Jake, Troy, Brenna, Jesper and Hayden please meet me straight after the roll to scriptwrite and film. Erin, Emilee, Phoebe, Ella and Emma are filming after morning tea with Dylan and Harrison (yr 8) as crew. Other students will be called during the day as required. 

Episode 9. The goal for this Friday is to get Episode 9 completely completed. If it is you who needs to finish a story and your name is not in What's on Top please come along on Friday anyway. You did a great push last Friday so well done. We will call people throughout the day to checking OK their parts. Yasmin's and Nic - your story, due to illness last term, is the last to be completed so needs to be done this week. Please organise your backgrounds for NIWA if you haven't done so yet. This episode needs to be posted by the end of the weekend.

Episode 10. Well done also for your hard work. The stories for Episode 10 so far are:
AFL- Troy and Jake, crew Georgia & Em. Thanks Em also for helping with Garageband music.
Room 16's Flowers exhibition Ella, Emma, Emilee, Erin & Phoebe- Harrison & Dylan as crew.
Room 1b & 15's sasa  (Harry, Room 15)
The Gala- Milly & Georgie (crew?)
Paremata Idol finals (Em, Kai, Lyndsay & Georgia (own crew)
Year 8s leaving (Brenna)
There was also another story but I am not sure what it was? I'll check the board on Friday unless someone can remember and pops it in a comment below. Mrs Haswell would also like a follow up story in one of these episodes after her trip to Uganda. Perhaps Chantelle & Hayden can do this? Let's aim to get this episode out by Week 5 or 6.

Episode 11. This is supposed to be a 'How To' episode designed to help Wave TV 2014 know what they are supposed to to do as crew. We'll sort out who does what for this on Friday. There is also a 'How to' Kapa Haka component. Nic, you had a 'how to' idea as well that you have time to explore. This episode needs to be out by about Week 7 so people have a chance to watch it before school ends.

Next year will be a little different because we will work in small groups each of which will be led by those of our awesomely talented 2013 year 7s who are still interested in making and anchoring Wave TV. Hopefully we will be able to make 3 or 4 episodes per term in small groups of about 8. In the next week or so I will put the call out for expressions of interest in Wave TV 2014 from 2014's year 6, 7 & 8s.

Thanks, Caroline
