Nonverbal Digital Short

Your final assessment for nonverbal communication will be to create a short video looking at one of the following forms:

• Haptics - touch
• Oculesics - eye movement (contact)
• Kinesics - body movement (language)
• Chronemics - use of time
• Olfactics - smell
• Vocalics - use of voice (tone, rate, pitch)
• Proxemics - use of space
• Artifacts - objects that communicate messages (clothing, furniture, etc.)
• Appearance - the way a person looks

Basic Instructions

In a small group (1-3), you will prepare a script for your video.  This short film should be between :30 and 1:00 in length, and it should describe your form of nonverbal communication.  You may approach this as a how to video, an analysis of one of the forms, a mini investigation, or whatever you think is effective.  

Someone from your group will need a YouTube account, which can be the same as your Gmail account.

Filming/Editing

When you are ready to film the video, you'll need to show your script to me.  You have two days in class to film and edit your work.  If you leave the lab, you will need to sign out and get a pass from me.  You must be where you told me you would be; otherwise, you will lose points and disciplinary action may be taken.  

After you have filmed the video, you'll need to edit the clips.  You can do this with many different resources.

Also, provide a descriptive summary detailing which form of nonverbal communication your video demonstrates.

• iDevices
• Splice is a great free editing tool that you can use.
• Watch this tutorial for you to use.
• Use pictures, videos, and music from your libraries on your device.

Sharing

Once you are ready to submit your video.  You'll need to export it to YouTube.  You must be logged into YouTube on your device.  You can make the video public or private with a link for me to see it.  Then, send me the link.

This project is due by the start of class on Monday.
