This document provides guidance for students to continue planning their music video projects. It instructs students to identify remaining planning tasks from their pre-production checklists and set goals to complete these. Examples of tasks include storyboards, schedules, budgets, and location permits. Students will work independently and as groups to accomplish these goals and develop their music video ideas. They will check progress and troubleshoot any issues in a final team meeting. The goal is for students to apply their pre-production knowledge and continue advancing their music video plans outside of lessons.

work are you going to work on. Will you start it or finish it?
Will it be a rough draft, or do you want it to be the final
version?
