Dan; Here is my proposal and below that is my script. I still need a few days to finish editing and will get to you right afterwards. I already returned the camera.
 * //Introduction//**

//Consider what you want to teach in terms of priorities and the steps that are involved. Do a cognitive task analysis of the subject matter and scope down exactly what you want to cover.//


 * //Possible locations//**

//Try to take footage in a real world environment for what you want to teach. For example if you want to teach how doctors should communicate with patients, try to film in a real hospital room. If this is not possible because of access or privacy matter, costumes and props will substitute nicely and get the point across.//


 * //People that will be involved//**

//The students of the video production class or medical students studying patient communication.//


 * //Task//**

//For this project students will write a script and create a five minute video showing the steps to follow during a visit with a patient and some non-examples/examples on how to communicate certain types of information like bad news.//

////These videos can be used to teach future students what an optimal way to communicate with a patient is and common mistakes to avoid.////


 * //Process//**

-//Find as many actors as needed and assign their roles// //-//Select a few example scenarios where you have to tell a patient bad news// -//Think of the optimal way a doctor would handle these scenarios// -//Come up with a few mistakes that doctors commonly make in this circumstance// -//Introduce the topic in a script and layout two non-example scenarios and one correct one//// //-Create a storyboard of the shots you need to convey the scenes// //-Gather/create any needed props or costumes// //-//Rehearse the scenes before shooting//// //-Film the patient doctor interaction from two different angles in the room// //-Do continuous sound checks to make sure dialogue is clear and at right volume// //-When editing video, show important things to remember in text on screen// //-Add narration and ending credits.//


 * Fire Drill Video: Home of Guiding Hands**

//Opening: exciting scene about fire rescue workers and fire with fast music.// //Slide pic.s cont. while music fades and narrator begins//

Fire can be caused by lightning, earthquakes, auto accidents, arson, electrical malfunctions, cooking accidents or unattended candles and more. Each year 30,000 Americans are killed or injured in fires.

//Video of small flame getting bigger or big house engulfed in flames//


 * Fire is the most common and widespread of all natural disasters.** When a fire does happen, it can go from a single flame to completely out of control within 30 seconds. Keep in mind there will be no time to gather valuables and belongings, everyone must exit immediately! If you can do so safely, **take the cell phone and med book with you in the event of an evacuation**, but **do not go back into the house for any reason.**

//Picture of person sleeping// Most fires occur in houses when people are sleeping and often claim the lives of the young, elderly and disabled.

//View of a house from the outside// That’s why HGH mandates that **fire drills are conducted every three months in every house under varied conditions**, and during all three shifts. This video will overview the steps to having a successful fire drill…

//Show evacuation route sign// This helps consumers get familiar with the process of evacuating and recognizing the fire alarm sound. In the event of a fire they take much longer to get out and there may be panicking so practice ensures that everyone in the house will be prepared in a real emergency. **This evacuation plan also shows the location of the main switches and shut-off valves.**

//Pics or alarm pulls and extinguishers// Because fire alarm pulls, fire alarm boxes and fire extinguishers are in different locations for each house, a co-worker will point these out for you at your assigned location. **It is your responsibility to know where all fire exits are at the start of your shift.**

//Show video of pushing of buttons// To activate the fire alarm, push the reset and activation button down at the same time for five continuous seconds. Leave the alarm on while the evacuation is practiced. Remember to get consumers a safe distance from the house, about 30ft.

//Show buttons pushed again, (are they same two?)// When ready to come back in, just push down these buttons down together for another five seconds and the alarm will turn off. It will automatically be armed again.

//Show example of counselor crawling with rag over mouth// Remember not to stand up during a fire. Instead, crawl low under the smoke since it kills people more often than flames do, and cover your mouth with a cloth. Also close doors as you exit rooms to slow the spreading of the fire.

//Show counselor with clip board counting number of people// Once out, do a head count to ensure total evacuation?

//Show counselor calling on phone// When you call the Fire Department, advise them of the fire location, type of facility, type of fire if known, and if there are any known injuries. Also tell them where the occupants have been evacuated to.

//Show counselor holding extinguisher and where pin is// If the fire is smaller, you can activate the fire extinguisher by removing the locking pin or other safety device and point the release hose at the base of the fire. Remember you cannot reuse a fire extinguisher once it has been activated.

//Show pics of binders for each consumer, then profile, then evacuation page// //Counselor sitting at table reading book// Also, every month that you conduct a fire drill, familiarize yourself with the evacuation sheet placed immediately after the front profile page for each consumer. These sheets have specific information about each consumer you may need to know to help you get them out quickly and safely.

//Video of people being filed out of house// For example, if someone reacts adversely to the fire alarm noise or takes extra time to exit, knowing this will help you know who to help first and how to help with their reactions.

//People out front of house happy or confident counselor smile// Now you will know how to do a fire drill at the home you work at, and practice will help you get better.

//Show flipping though book// There are slightly different procedures and other things to consider during other emergencies, and these will be covered in following segments.

-Quiz: Can include ?’s on DVD/ net and give test paper to accompany?
 * BOLD**= show as text on screen since info tested on…

I had to change my focus from my original idea since now is when I can shoot footage on how to conduct fire drill and the philosophy section I'm now conducting later this semester.

Type of project: Instructional video for new hires. This video will be part of an online orientation for new counselors going to work with mentally retarded clients in a residential setting. Fire drills are conducted quarterly.

Description / plot summary: Shows steps to a fire drill and dangers of fire. Show the importance of evacuating quickly and thing to do/not to do.

Possible locations for filming: At the Home of Guiding Hands, a residential home where two counselors at a time stay at a home with 6 developmentally disabled people. Already have ok from counselors to tape them doing a fire drill

People that will be involved: Me, the two counselors, and 6 developmentally disabled residents.

Task at hand: To inform people about the dangers of fire, what do to in case of a fire. Where things like fire alarm and extinguishers are around the house and present information to be tested on at end of video.

(Footage) of a fire drill example along with web footage of firefighters for the intro. also see story board... -Nelly Aragon Here is the website for the company: http://www.guidinghands.org/ See you in two weeks, NELLY

On the ICANN site I thought the Hero and Explorers videos were pretty similar to the philosophy video I'd like to do later this semester. On the other site I thought the Cow training and estuaries videos were more instructional like the fire drill one I'm doing for this class. -Nelly I am doing an internship at the Home of Guiding Hands in San Diego where I'm making an onlline orientation for new counselors that will work with developmentally disabled people. I want to make a intro to the company and mission statement video to get them excited about their new job and show what the job will be like. I have interviews scheduled with a couple new counselors so it may end up looking like a "day in the life of" kind of format.

//Sounds great! Nice idea. - Dan//
