Advanced Video: Archetype Introductions
In our exploration of character, we 
focused on the archetypes proposed by Carl Jung. These are the character types that everyone in our society knows and has a gut reaction to. You can read about them here: Video_ Jungian Archetypes
We also discussed character introductions and how certain images and iconography helps announce these archetypes.
Your assignment (Rubric: Video Rubric_ Archetype Entrance) is to create a video that introduces one of these archetypes. You should use the iconography to make it clear what your archetype is.
Past projects were not completed on schedule. Therefore, meeting schedules is an important part of this assignment. Each phase has a specific deadline. Each school day you are late on each deadline would lose one point. These deadlines account for about 1/3 of the grade.
The groups were assigned and can be seen below.
Trickster: Jacob, Yara, Samer, Tristan
Explorer: Joze, MeiLing, Nader, Ali
Magician: Andre, Adonis, Will
Everyman: Matt, Joseph, Alex, Eman

Advanced Video: Color Palette Project
You have been put into groups. With your groups,
you’ll produce two scenes that highlight a color palette. You need to be the editor or cinematographer on one of these projects. Think about why you’re using that color palette and plan accordingly.
