FINE PRINT:

  1. Attendance is mandatory. We cover too much material in class to make it up. You are permitted one excused absence. Final grades will be docked 1/3 of a letter grade per absence after that.
  2. You will be required to attend outside Lab Training sessions to learn necessary software. This is the only place software will be taught in depth. Attendance is part of your grade.
  3. Assignments are due on the date stated at the beginning of class. I accept no late work.
  4. Video production can not be done by yourself. It has to be a team effort. You need responsible well trained crew members to pull off the simplest production. Please show up on time ready to work.
  5. When you plan to work in the lab, bring the necessary video/audio tapes with you.
  6. All out of class assignments MUST be typed.
  7. Graduate students are expected to work together and complete projects worthy of graduate credit. See individual assignment sheets.
