 * View Gallery of past CCHD Winners**
 * View I am Raymondville slideshow 2nd place winner from 2013.**


 * Consider the following questions as you create your slideshow.:**
 * 1) What is the poverty rate in Florida? In your county? Does this surprise you?
 * 2) What are the ways that you show love and walk humbly in your life with God?
 * 3) How does CCHD show their work for justice? Why does CCHD believe it is important for local groups or communities to be involved in the issues affecting the daily lives of people living in poverty?
 * 4) What is a good example of a charitable organization in your county or state? What do they do? How are they providing charity in your community?
 * 5) What is a good example of a social justice organization in your county or state? What do they do to provide social justice to the people they server?


 * Design Cycle Part 1 and 2: Investigate and Design**
 * 1) Your assignment is to create a slideshow to fulfill the creativity component of the Catholic Campaign for Human Development contest. Think about the **Two Feet of Love in Action** theme. Review the essay that you have written. How can you demonstrate your understanding of the topic in a slideshow?
 * 2) You may use your own camera or smartphone. If you do not have one, work with a partner who does. You may only use your device to take photos on the assigned day.
 * 3) Make sure that you have permission of supervisors or classroom teachers before taking any photos. Do not disrupt any classes.
 * 4) Take photos at ICS during one day. Do NOT take photos of anyone without their permission. Make sure they understand that the photo may be used in a slideshow. You may work individually or in pairs to take the photos but you will each create your own version of the slideshow.
 * 5) There is a list of students at ICS who may not be included in any photos that are put online. We will review this list together.
 * 6) Any photos taken without permission or any inappropriate photos taken will have serious consequences - demerits and possible removal from Washington DC trip.
 * 7) You will be allowed to use photos from the Metropolitan Ministries trip and from the reading program with the kindergarten students. There are photos on the ICS Flickr account. Ask for the username and password.
 * 8) Remember to be a photo editor. Set up the scene for the shots. View the Top Ten tips for Great Pictures before taking any photos.
 * 9) View **I am Raymondville** **, 2013 2nd place winner**. View samples of assignments from ICS students in previous years in the links on the bottom of this page. (The topic was different but the product of photos, captions, text, music is the same.


 * Design Cycle Part 3: Plan the following before you create the media message:**
 * 1) Begin work on the **CCHD Poverty Planning document. No photography will be allowed and no work in Animoto will begin until there is a plan for the photos and the slideshow. Note: Keep it simple. Tell the story that you know. How do you demonstrate Two Feet of Love in Action? How do you show love and walk humbly in your life with God? The project will be completed by Mar 6.**
 * 2) View the **Slideshow Rubric**


 * Design Cycle Part 4: Create**
 * 1) Decide which of the photos you will use for your slideshow. You are required to use the ICS logo somewhere in the slideshow.
 * 2) Create a folder in **My Documents**. Use your name for the name of the folder. Please images that you will use for the slideshow in this folder.
 * 3) Then upload photo either into pixlr.com online or into the Paint program on your computer to crop and/or improve the photo. Crop each photo using the rule of thirds to determine the most effective presentation of the image.
 * 4) Login to Animoto The account information and password will be provided by Mrs. Carrier. //**Do not use your own email address.**//
 * 5) Upload your slides. Add a title slide. Make sure the slides are in the correct order. Add a caption for each image that adds a deeper understanding of the message. Add text in between the slides. Select music for the slideshow. Add credits at the end of the slideshow. The slideshow must be a minimum of 10 slides in length.
 * 6) Write a brief description of the slideshow in Animoto. Give it an appropriate title providing additional meaning for the story.
 * 7) Mrs. Carrier must view it before you publish it.
 * 8) Include a link to your slideshow on Animoto on this page in the section at the top.
 * Enter your title and a link to your completed slideshow here in a bullet list. Include your codename.
