Week 10 • Generative Sound

Project 3: 2045 Video Stories: Multimodal Essay-Fiction (15 %)

Due: Week 11 / Nov 3rd  |  Modality: Individual short video, slideshow video, or hybrid media piece (30–60 seconds) + with sound

Objective

Create a short AI-assisted multimodal piece that expands the world your group designed in Project 2. You may generate short video clips and/or still images to build a video with audio. Your project must remain visually and conceptually consistent with your group’s world by using the same visual references, cultural cues, and stylistic rules. The piece can be an ad, PSA, news transmission, tutorial for a process in the world, short story, social media post, or meme-like commentary. Treat it as a new “window” into your shared universe.

Deliverables

• Multimodal Clip (30–60 seconds): May be produced with AI video tools (Runway, Sora, Pika, Stable Video) or edited entirely from still images plus audio. Added text is optional.
• No Prompt Log & for this project

Evaluation Criteria

• Originality and strong alignment with the group’s world-building project
• Craft and technical execution: pacing, sequencing, audio mix, overall polish
• Conceptual clarity: how well the piece expresses, complicates, or interrogates the world’s ideas
