Best’s Video Outline: Based on early-in-the-year lessons which I have to keep repeating/reminding/re-teaching all-year!

Working Title - Size Matters (opening title – scroll like STAR WARS)
…depending on pixels & purpose… (subtitle)
…except in the STAR WARS Universe……where the little guy [Yoda] can beat the BIG guy [Darth Vader]!
Stills (spin around) of my Galactic Heroes by Hasbro, Yoda & Darth
Music- the classic or some version of it?
Purpose (vo-Before you start, you have to know your purpose…)
Examples (images-Web, poster, flyer, photo album, handheld, etc.)
Output (vo-What will your final output be?)
Print? 8 ½” x 11” a standard sheet of paper or a 24” X 36” poster?
Internet? 72 ppi-ready & fast-loading?
OK, I’m getting ahead of myself…
'Let’s discuss a few concepts…'
What is a pixel & why should you care?
Pixels – TV commercial for Optimum HD-TV? {every color is a person in a different color suit…get ready, rainbow…}
Resolution = ppi (pixels per inch) - Let me try to demonstrate…
-low res image (80 x 100)…grabbed from the Internet (or clip art)...screen capture?
Web = 72ppi –vs.- print
-high res image…
How can PhotoShop help?
New document size…Scaling – Scale Tool
Raster & Vector Graphics
Part II – The Sequel – Vector Graphics (Adobe Illustrator, etc.) – How does size matter here (or not)?
