Checklist

To check if your video meets the requirements, please check the rubric. A short general checklist, based on the rubric, is given below. Please note that this checklist is based on technicalities and that your course may have additional requirements.

    • The purpose of the video, what type of video will be used, and the target audience have been described in a clear and concise way.
    • A clear and concise description telling what the video is about (synopsis) is given, which makes clear that the video:
      • Serves the purpose of the assignment
      • Is relevant to the subject matter and matches the requirements of the course or client.
    • A script is given that outlines the core message of the video including all texts, actions and motions to be used.
    • The script has been translated into a complete storyboard that uses images to convey how all crucial moments are to be filmed.
    • All scientific sources for substantiating the core message and script are listed using the appropriate reference method.
    • A clear overview of all needed permissions is provided, which covers the following aspects: model/extra release form(s), shooting on location, rights of publicity (model release), use of existing video and audio material.
