Assignment 2
Incorporate Text and/or Voice Over Theme Care

1.-Make a 20-second video with the theme of Care. Care as you understand it. Some example, think of care as the provision of what is necessary for health, safety, protection, serious attention, responsibility, concern, interest, to look after, commitment, help, assistance, being present, etc.
2.-Landscape orientation. Horizontal video. Please, make sure to follow this spec.
3.-Feel free to edit.
4.-Think about the relation between the images and what you say or show. Does those words or voice change the meaning of what we are watching? Are they setting some story? Do they give more information that there is no way we can access?
5.-Think that probably the voice-over will be about 3-4 sentences.
6.-You can use any camera or device you have access to. Don’t worry about size or format.
Once your video is shot, please drop it to the google drive link you have, or use wetransfer.
