Your Featurette is DUE FRIDAY

IF you are NOT editing

If you need to upload do so at lunch or after school

Follow these two steps today:

• FIRST STEP:
• Check your Powerschool for your Mini-Doc grade
• If it is an "M" or your name appears below you tried to turn it in but it didn't work and you need to do something to fix that this class.
• Period 5: Brenda, Bryan ,Abel
• Period 4: Shak, 
• Open iMovie and go to the Mini-Doc project
• Export it again as an MP4 and make sure the export finishes before you do anything else.
• Once iMovie gives you the "Share successful" message THEN upload it into the SAME assignment as the one that doesn't work.
• You will have to unsubmit it for that to work - no worries, just resubmit it when you are finished.

• If you have an actual grade, or NO grade yet you will receive a written assessment tomorrow. If it is lower than a 3 you need to pay closer attention to the requirements.
• If it is a ZERO then you did not turn it in and I have no record of you trying to.
