Course Syllabus, Graduate Students, WebCourses@UCF

Greetings! A final course update before we meet this coming Wednesday:

Syllabus
I have uploaded the course syllabus to the blog and sent a google doc link to you all in an email. Please let me know if you are having trouble viewing the syllabus and I'll send you a PDF. 

PLEASE NOTE: The syllabus for this course is not the Vow of Chastity or the course schedule! Those documents were distributed ahead of time to allow as much time for planning film scripts and shooting schedules as possible. Please take the time to look over the syllabus for grade breakdowns and course policy. We will be reviewing this document in class this week!

Graduate Students!
I am happy to announce that our class will be joined by graduate film students Yesi Lima and Tim Ritter. They are in the process of casting their own feature films and will be available as casting mentors for you and your projects. They have been through everything you are going through this semester and are excellent resources for advice on all stages of production. Yesi and Tim will also help us run the UCF General Casting Call.

We are very lucky to have these graduates as resources for our class, so get to know them if you don't already!

WebCourses@UCF
There will be a WebCourses section for this course, as means of keeping track of grades and assignment rubrics ONLY. WebCourses will become available starting Aug. 19th and you will be able to see all the assignments, their grade weight, and grading rubrics (coming soon!).

All outside of class communication will remain via email and the course blog, not WebCourses.

You are all responsible for keeping track of your grades on WebCourses and reporting any problems to me as soon as they arise. If you have not used the new WebCourses system, please take some time in the next week to familiarize yourself.


That's all for now! Everyone have great first week back, and I'll see you Wednesday!!
