Using an assortment of photos taken in the digital photography unit, create a reflection movie illustrating some of your best work. Your ultimate goal is to find photos that you feel have a professional quality about them. You must select at least 10-15 photos to include. It would be good to include more than that.

NOTE: Have a plan before you begin! Assemble your movie and add all needed transitions, titles, etc., before adding any narration. When finished, save your project. Then, click File, SAVE MOVIE and save that file separately. You will burn that file (a movie file that plays outside of Movie Maker) as WMV to CD for scoring. Be sure to label your CD.
