About Remix Videos

"Remix" means pulling from other people's work and combining it in new ways.  There are copyright issues when doing remix projects, but schoolwork is considered "fair use" so we don't need to get permission to do this.  That said, if you post a remix online, software may find your project and either notify an author to send you a threatening letter, or YouTube (for example) might put advertisements on it. 

To earn a 4, student remixers needed to show intentionality throughout their product: nothing should happen by accident, and the effects (timing and level mixing of sound, image and text) should be also be deliberate.  There should also be evidence of creativity and vision.  For a 3.5, students might not maintain that level of control, but start with it. 

For a 3, students created a video that remixes from at least 3 sources: found video, found audio, found images, personal narration and cslide titles.  Students should also have gone through at least one cycle of revision after feedback.
