Create your own custom score

ASSIGNMENT:

Pick one (or more) videos to work on. There are 4 possible options via this link.
Setup your DAW to score the video - start a project, load the video, choose your sounds/tempo/etc.
Preparation: add markers for start/stop points, as well as significant moments. Each video has a creative brief that outlines a few hit points. It’s fine to disagree, but just be sure to articulate *why* you are making a different creative choice (in the next worksheet).
Fill out the worksheet: “Template - Decisions to be Made” for the video you chose.
Upload an initial “rough draft” of your score idea - bounce/export the audio to the video and upload a link (you will need to use YouTube, Vimeo, Dropox, etc. to host the video).
Bounce/export your final version of your score (again, you’ll need to host elsewhere and upload a link to the project gallery).

DELIVERABLES:

Start your project by uploading a screenshot of your DAW setup - how you are laying out your markers.
Fill out and upload: "Template - Decisions to be Made." Use your imagination to fill in answers that, per the nature of this being a hypothetical situation, don't have a clear scenario. The important part is that you are thinking through these elements - regardless if it's just a simulated scenario.
Upload a link to your "rough draft" idea. This should be complete enough to convey your idea, but will be far from a finished example. This is like what you'd send a Director for a first listen.
Upload a link to your final

Reminder - you can't upload video to Skillshare for your class project. You're going to need to host it elsewhere (i.e. Dropbox, YouTube, Vimeo, etc.) and include a link in your project.
