Get in groups of 4-5.  In your groups, try to find as many of the tasks as possible during class time.  Each person in the group should use the camera at some point in time to film.  You do need to stick together, so no wandering off on your own.  See the list below for the different tasks.  The total photos you should have when finished is 32 photos.
