I-Movie Rubrics

< name="Generator" content="Microsoft Word 2008">

Besides making our I-Movie and then reviewing our own movies, we were asked to grade our selves and 4 other groups. Each groups I-Movie needed to be about a different pharaoh. Here are my rubrics.

Notes:

  • Our introduction gave background information on Hatshepsut and how she became pharaoh. It was clear and relevant. It included the time period and the dynasty in which she ruled.
  • We explained the achievements of Hatshepsut and how these achievements effected Ancient Egypt.
  • We gave examples of some of Hatshepsut's architectural achievements but we did not explain how her religious beliefs were shown as well as we should of.
  • Our narration did not match the images that were shown on screen yet they were all relevant and most were interesting. Also most were of good quality
  • Our narration was clear and loud and there was little background noise.
  • Our transitions and effects were placed in good proportion. There were not to many nor were there too few.
  • Our MLA citations were correct for websites and books but our image citations were incorrect. Overall I think we did OK.

Notes:

· Their introduction was clear, relevant, correct and was also entertaining. It also included the time period and dynasty in which he ruled.

· They clearly explained the achievements Ramses II made during his reign.

· They described and explained the architectural achievements Ramses II made during his reign. They forgot to include how his religious beliefs were shown in these structures.

· Most images were interesting, relevant and were of good quality but there were some that were not all relevant. (For Example, the random Egyptian chair!)

· Their narration was clear fluent and easy to understand. Little background noise could be heard.

· The transitions and effects used helped to improve the imovie. At no time did they get annoying.

· It was really hard to see the MLA citations (TOO FAST!)

Notes:

· They acted out the beginning of the movie, then gave detail information on King Tuts past (Background Info). They also included the time period and dynasty in which King Tut ruled.

· They only explained 1-2 of King Tut's accomplishments, yet these were explained in great detail.

· A few architectural achievements were included and they described how this showed King Tuts religious beliefs were showed through these structures.

· They included interesting images which were relevant to the subject and their pictures matched their narration.

· The narration was clear and background noise could sometimes be heard. It seemed like they had practiced beforehand.

· There were few transitions in their movie which helped further improve their movie.

· They had their image URL’s on their movie but they did not do the proper MLA format.

· Their images were relevant, interesting and of good quality. Their narration usually matched their text.

· Their narration was loud but they spoke too fast, it was hard to understand what they were saying at times.

· Their transitions were in proportion, not to many nor were there to little.

Notes:

· Introduction was clear and relevant and included the time period in which Khufu ruled. Would be better if they mentioned the dynasty and the time period in which he ruled at the same time, not during two different points in the movie.

· They only had one of Khufu’s accomplishments included in their movie (The Great Pyramid of Giza). This was the same accomplishment they used for his architectural achievements. It was well explained though.

· They did not mention how ‘The Great Pyramid of Giza’ showed Khufu’s religious beliefs.

· Pictures were interesting, of good quality and were sort of synchronized. Some pictures were shown a little to early so they did not make any sense (like the golden 23)

· Their Narration was loud and clear but background noise got in the way some of the time.

· There were few transitions in their imovie. It was fine as it was but a few more transitions would have been nice.

· Could not understand your MLA citations, they were really blurry and fuzzy.
