OPTION 1
OPTION 2
For option 1 you will be making a documentary video about an artist or art movement of your choice. Go to theartstory.org, and look under All Artists or All Movements to find an artist. Take your time, explore, and find an artist you find interesting. You can also use the filters on the site to narrow down your search. NOTE: You can't choose a street artist you already did!
When you find your artist write their name on the board by your group. Every group needs a different artist!
For option 2 you will be making a video of you creating art. IMPORTANT!! Only choose this option if you have the ability to film yourself creating the art!
The type of art you make is up to you. However, make sure it's something you can easily record. If you like to do digital art you can also record your screen and use that.
You may work with 1 partner to help you film and edit your video.

VIDEO requirements
Your video length should be between 3-4 minutes. This includes a title sequence and end credits.
Introduce your artist or art movement. This documentary should be like a short biography so you should include information about their life, education, and how they got started.
Begin discussing their work chronologically. This will be the main part of your documentary. You can include video and images in this part. If you use videos that someone else made you must follow the rules for fair use.
You will need to narrate your video and explain your information and what is happening.
Your video length should be between 1-3 minutes. This includes a title sequence and end credits.
The video can be a time-lapse, but it should show the entire process from beginning to end.
You will need to explain what your art is about and why you chose to make it.
You should also have music in your video. A good site to use for background music is freesound.org. You can register for free with your school email account. You can legally use their sounds and music in personal projects.
Expectations of Quality
Creative work is often subjective - which means it's quality can be based on someone's own personal feelings. However, There is one absolute indicator of quality and that is effort. If you have an extended period of time to work on a project that means you're being given TIME to put in the effort needed to make something of a higher quality. That time spent focusing on your project will almost always lead to better grades (if that is your goal). Putting in less effort may also lead to lower grades.
You will have approximately 4 class periods to work on this project. That equals over 5 hours of in class work. Which means you should be spending your class time working on the project to meet the following expectations:
How does it look when you're graded on effort? This chart gives you an example of how your effort in class is graded. Green would be putting in the most effort, and red is very little or no effort. Green = A level work, Yellow = B or C level work, Orange = C or D level work, Red = F level work. For a more detailed breakdown of this check out this information.
