Sent at 10:37 PM on Thursday **Matt MacVeigh:** does anyone have Brittany's gmail account? **Kathryn Barrett:** I only have mylamar for her You have added Brittany to this group chat. Brittany Blogspot joined group chat. **Matt MacVeigh:** I found it  **Kathryn Barrett:** Great **Amy George:** well at least we learned how to use this! **Kathryn Barrett:** its a start **Matt MacVeigh****:** Alright...we're rockin' now...so what should we talk about? **Brittany Blogspot:** i guess, what topic does everyone want to cover? **Kathryn Barrett:** how about the script **Amy George:** sounds good to me. Sent at 10:41 PM on Thursday **Kathryn Barrett:** The ideas for suggesting ways for parents to talk to their children is good. Where do we go from there? **Matt MacVeigh****:** I really like option 2...I think it had a good mix of emotion with the integration of National Crime Prevention Council points **Kathryn Barrett:** just way too long Kathryn Barrett left group chat. **Brittany Blogspot:** i really liked amy's idea as well...i think it will be easy to shoot and keep under 1 min **Matt MacVeigh****:** Was Amy's the "standard bullying" script? I do like that as well and lends itself well to video **Amy George:** I think we wuld have an easier time with our audience aimed at parents and I really like the cyberbulling theme. **Brittany Blogspot:** amy's is under 'another idea to share' on the wiki i like the cyberbullying theme as well **Matt MacVeigh****:** Oh I see it now...yes, very good with the what parents can do at home message...what do you think Kathryn? **Brittany Blogspot:** i think kathryn is offline Sent at 10:47 PM on Thursday **Matt MacVeigh****:** She might still be trying to get TinyChat to work... I like the visual descriptions Amy included in her script You have added Kathryn to this group chat. Kathryn Barrett joined group chat. **Amy George:** who is wiling to take camera shots? **Brittany Blogspot:** yes, and that will be easy to shoot if we stick to texting/computer shots i can do the filming tomorrow **Matt MacVeigh****:** I don't teach kids, so unfortunately it won't be me...unless I use my own children but they're a little young **Kathryn Barrett:** I think the texting/computer shots would be great **Brittany Blogspot:** i won't be able to have kids in it, but i think we can easily stick to just hand shots with this topic **Kathryn Barrett:** sounds good - could add a dramatic effect with good angles **Matt MacVeigh****:** Then let's just have Brittany do the shots tomorrow...probably will have more impact too **Kathryn Barrett:** great **Brittany Blogspot:** i think it will...good idea amy does someone want to write up a final script? **Amy George:** I am not sure I am getting all the typing? I see t ohers are typing ut nothing comes up? **Kathryn Barrett:** How about the audio? I know we need to edit script. I think we can all work on that, but we probably need a deadline and then a time to work on audio **Matt MacVeigh****:** I don't mind writing up a script, but the text will look a lot like what Amy put in her "another idea"...I like the concept of short bulleted comments **Kathryn Barrett:** ok can you elaborate? Brittany your text did not show up for some reason on my screen **Matt MacVeigh****:** For example the script would go something like this: (Narrator): Bullying can take several forms: hurting others physically, spreading bad rumors, teasing or ganging up on others.
 * Amy George:** hello

Then what is Cyberbullying?..."

The script would just put into a flowing statement what Amy already wrote **Kathryn Barrett:** Hey, Matt, it says your are typing. did you see my comment? OK got it now **Brittany Blogspot:** i think that will work matt amy has everything there but it just needs a few words added here and there **Amy George:** sounds good **Kathryn Barrett:** Sounds good. Are we editing option 2? **Matt MacVeigh****:** We would just use the shot list to match up the audio with the video Ms. Blogspot (funny last name by the way...what a coincidence) will shoot tomorrow **Brittany Blogspot:** i will edit the video together into a 60 second clip and then someone can just voice and add the audio once we have the final script i'll finish that sunday/monday that way, we can finish early and use the rest of the time to submit everything else **Matt MacVeigh****:** I'll volunteer to edit the video and audio together. I have access to Adobe Premier. It would be easier if the video is in pieces though **Brittany Blogspot:** ok, i can post the video to the wiki and you can edit it together **Kathryn Barrett:** great what else do we need? **Brittany Blogspot:** i would just be using microsoft movie maker **Matt MacVeigh****:** That should work...I don't know what the file size limit is on the wiki, but I'm sure we can make it work **Amy George:** I think we have a great plan and we can meet again as needed. **Brittany Blogspot:** i'll let you know if i have any trouble and as soon as i post everything **Kathryn Barrett:** good ideas **Matt MacVeigh****:** Movie maker would probably work just fine too if we get into a crunch...I looked above in the conversation and it looks like you guys want this done pretty quick. What's the deadline for a complete project that we're imposing? **Kathryn Barrett:** monday the 27, i think??? **Amy George:** I think the final is due end of week 5 yes Monday is what I understand the 27th **Matt MacVeigh****:** Ok...I just wanted to make sure you guys didn't want this all complete by this coming Monday. As long as I have a few days next week, I'll get it edited together by about Wednesday. Who is going to do the narration with Audacity? **Kathryn Barrett:** i can unless someone else would rather **Matt MacVeigh****:** Not me...Amy and Kathryn can attest to my microphone quality **Kathryn Barrett:** Could you hear me OK? my sound quality was not great on my personal video, but understandable **Matt MacVeigh****:** Your sound was great, it was like you were in the same room I meant your chat audio earlier **Kathryn Barrett:** haha **Brittany Blogspot:** ok, so i will do the filming, matt is editing, kathryn is doing the audio, and amy is doing the final script? **Amy George:** yes Kathryn sounded clear when spoke to her too **Kathryn Barrett:** wow this cheap walmart mic must work ok  **Matt MacVeigh****:** Always the lowest prices on the brands you trust! **Kathryn Barrett:** lol **Amy George:** I was just talking into my mini hp laptop **Kathryn Barrett:** it sounded good, too **Matt MacVeigh****:** Amy, do you want to hammer out an official script, or did you want me to do that? **Kathryn Barrett:** i will be looking for word that the script is in final form while I go over all of the audacity readings and play with the mic. let me know when we are ready to record ok? **Amy George:** I can do that but I thnk I missed parof this chat.. are we combining them or just refining mine? part of this chat.. sorry can't type **Brittany Blogspot:** just using yours **Matt MacVeigh****:** Just refining yours from what I understand. Yours will keep us under 60 seconds **Amy George:** ok - I can refine and everyone can edit on the WIki before final recording? how does that sound **Brittany Blogspot:** sounds good **Kathryn Barrett:** all right! we have a plan!!! **Matt MacVeigh****:** Sounds good to me. After I finish the editing the video next week, I'll also post it to YouTube since that's one of the requirements. It will also end up on the wiki itself after I do that. **Kathryn Barrett:** great. **Amy George:** Matt - if you want to add edits I think that would be great. aren't you in the PR busines anyway? **Matt MacVeigh****:** What you've got is already pretty sharp, but if we add anything, I think it would be the National Crime Prevention stuff from Option 2 **Amy George:** ok I again see that others are typing but don't get the chat - is that happenin to you all? **Matt MacVeigh****:** I see it happening as well, but I think everything is working out fine **Kathryn Barrett:** so is that a wrap for tonight? **Amy George:** yes from here **Matt MacVeigh****:** I think we're pretty much all done...I'll copy this transcript to the wiki to document our collaboration efforts. **Kathryn Barrett:** excellent! **Amy George:** fantabulous! **Brittany Blogspot:** have a good night everyone **Matt MacVeigh****:** Talk to you guys later! **Kathryn Barrett:** g'night **Amy George:** yes good night Brittany Blogspot left group chat. Amy George left group chat. Kathryn Barrett left group chat. Matt MacVeigh left group chat.
