Course Modality
This is an online class only that takes place in D2L. We do not have a regularly scheduled class meeting.?
An online class requires a lot of self-discipline. Please don’t underestimate the time you think this class and your project will take you. There are specific due dates. Make note of when things are due, create a calendar for yourself, note the due dates, and add tasks into your calendar for the project assignments and the D2L Lessons when they open to help you stay on time.? To succeed in this class, I recommend setting up a regular day and time on your calendar for this class as though it is a standard class you have to attend every week at a set time. Doing that will help keep you accountable and on time. Use the day and time you schedule for yourself to work on the D2L lesson labs: think of lesson labs as remote class sessions.
If you ever feel stuck or unsure, don’t hesitate to reach out for help.
Office hours, peer feedback sessions, and online resources are all available to support your learning journey. I will also host 3 one-hour remote Mary’s Cafe Chat sessions, via Zoom, for anyone who wants to attend, you can drop in at any time during that hour.?
Our remote MM 250 Cafe Corner is a great way to get help if needed, bring everyone together, put faces to names, and provide a human element that makes the creative world so vibrant. The Dates, Time, and Zoom link for the optional cafe chat hour will be added to the top of our D2L homepage.

PCC MM/VPEM Digital Presentation
This assignment will require you to create a PCC MM/VPEM digital presentation, using the format of your choice to showcase work you’ve produced during the program, breaking down what you did during the projects and addressing key questions that are connected to the assessment of student work in our department, which I will provide for you in the assignment.

Capstone Project
Throughout your time in our PCC Multimedia/VPEM program, you have learned different methodologies for producing stories. Now it’s time to take what you’ve learned and apply it to a single project that you will develop throughout this term, this can be in any digital media format that you choose. To complete your project, you will utilize the tools and knowledge acquired throughout the program to create a portfolio-worthy project that demonstrates proficiency in multimedia/VPEM production. This will be broken up into smaller project assignments that you will submit along the way while actively working on your project goals and project completion.
Options for the Capstone Project:
- Option 01: Previously Started Media Project
- For this option, you will choose a project from another class or a personal project that you started but haven’t completed and complete it this term for the full development of a multimedia project that you want to complete this term for a portfolio quality piece. This is using any research, tutorial lessons, assets and pre-production work started previously in another class or a personal project and completing it this term so that viewers can experience it.
- Option 02: New Project
- For this option, you will start with a new digital media project idea that you have been thinking about but never had the chance to bring forward, this could be a great opportunity to advance an idea that is leading you toward your long-term goals.
- Option 03: Proof of Concept
- For this option, you will develop a proof of concept project for a project/story that is a long-form story that you want to continue working on beyond this class. This is a great way to begin working on your idea, doing research, planning for what you need, creating digital assets that demonstrate your idea, etc.
- Option 4: Marketing Plan and Professional 欧洲杯决赛竞猜app_欧洲杯足球网-投注|官网ment

When you pick your project, pick a project you are passionate about and a project you can feasibly complete in 10 weeks.?
To everyone who is taking this class, I’m looking forward to being on this journey with you.
