Effects Sandbox Assignment Model
You need to post TWO SEPARATE posts today like the one here. Label your posts "special_effects."
Do the following:
Sample:
For the effect below, you choose “Emboss” in the “Stylize” folder.
You want to adjust the Relief between 1.50 and 2.0, set the contrast between 50 and 70, and make sure there is 0 Blend. Changing the Direction only decides which part of the clip will show the embossing most strongly.
You might use this in a fantasy about someone turning to stone. You could also use it to simulate statues coming to life.
Do the following:
- Give directions about how to find the effect (what is it called? What FOLDER is it in?)
- Explain how to change the settings to get the effect you're showing.
- Give us an idea about how you might use it in a film.

Before You Tackle Your Final Video
If there are 4 people in your group, work with your partner.
If there are 3 people in your group, work as a group of 3.
1. Open a Word file. Copy and paste all the comments about your video into the Word file.
2. Read all the comments.
3. In the Word file, create a section called "Positive comments."
MOVE the most genuine, honest and helpful positive comments from ALL posts into this section. Include first names of people who wrote the comments. I'd like at least SIX, but it's better to include ALL the positive comments that helped you understand what you did well.
4. Create another section in the Word file called "Suggestions."
MOVE the best suggestions you received into this section. Include first names of people who wrote the comments. I'd like at least FOUR suggestions, but it's better to include ALL the suggestions you think might be on target.
5. Create a blog post called "Thinking about Our Final Values Video."
Copy/paste the "Positive Comments" and "Suggestions" sections from your Word file.
6. Write:
This post is from __________________ and ____________________________.
The positive comments that were most meaningful to us were from _____________ and __________________. (two different posts, not a pair saying one thing). _______________ told us that _______________________________________________________________, and that was helpful because___________________________________________________________. In addition, ________________________ told us that ____________________________________________, and that helped us see that ________________________________________________________.
The two best suggestions we got were from ___________________________ and ___________________________ (again, two suggestions from different posts, a pair saying one thing).
_____________________________suggested that we ________________________________. We agree with this suggestion, and our plan to address it is to_____________________________________________.
_____________________________suggested that we ________________________________. We agree with this suggestion, and our plan to address it is to_____________________________________________.

If you're working with a partner, be sure to include both names at the top of the post.
In addition, post to BOTH blogs.
7. Decide what you and your group can accomplish so that you have uploaded your FINAL draft of your film by the end of class on March 29th. On a sheet of paper, write the member of your group and your plan for completing your film. Specify who will do what. Turn that in to your instructor before you start executing your plan.
