Firstly, LOVED THE SONG! Very appropriate for the topic and I am sure most students will find it relevant. My suggestions would be as follows: 1. Some of your images are a bit blurry. You may want to tweak them a bit. 2. You may want to adjust the duration on some of the shots to give the viewer time to process the information. 3. I think students might benefit from a bit of direct instruction too, so you might want to consider adding some dialogue to help focus them in the right direction. Nice job... Carol
Cool, original idea Mike. Like we discussed in class, I would just make sure that the information you are trying to convey through the text is clearly understood.
I have to agree with Carol and Matt, I thought it was great! Very entertaining, but as I was watching it, it felt a bit short, like I wasn't quite ready for it to be over, and after reading your outline, I am wondering why the second verse didn't make it to the video? I think the song is very creative and age appropriate, I know my students would love it, we frequently have "free-style fridays" in the art room.
I would also suggest you make the last text line bigger, it was very hard to read. Can't wait to see the final version!
Hey Mike, I like the idea of your video- great pictures! I agree with Carol though in that you may want to add some direct instruction. For example, explain the chart that you show in the beginning.
Way to go! I know that students would absolutely love this! Only suggestions would be that some of the text was small so just enlarge it. Maybe also make it a bit longer and include a little bit of an introduction before you start your lyrics. Wonderful video again, Mike!

Love it Mike! I would raise the volume of your lyrics so it's little easier to hear. Can't wait to see the finished product!

I love the song. The pictures are great. I can defiantly imagine what your talking about. It is a great start.
