Creating Clean Coyote Recycles! was a fun adventure for my second graders. We learned a lot about brainstorming ideas, writing the script, filming, lighting, acting, and most of all, editing. We are proud of what we have created as a team. We hope you enjoy it too!

That's great! Good message, delivered succinctly. Lots of fun touches that made it memorable (costume, fast motion, titles, stock footage, etc.). Was your music from FreePlay? Be sure to give credit for that, too, in your credits.

Your coyote was adorable! Green screen effect was terrific. How did you get your credits to go so slowly? Choice of music was inspiring. Loved it!

@Diane- I clicked on the "wheel thing" on the clip and chose clip editor. There you can adjust how long you want that section to last. I believe I just increased the time for that clip. Thanks!
@Frank- Should I repost with the updated credits (credits including the music from FreePlay)?

I love the coyote costume! The kids did a great job with enunciation! The camera angles were also really good. There are tiny bits of sounds that are a little tough to hear - but other than that this PSA is terrific!

@JoAnn—nope, this is a training exercise. You're fine. But in the "real" world, I'd add it (future projects).

Wow! Very clean editing and I love the transitions. 2nd graders did a super job!
