Mayo's Sub Plans - Monday 10/22

Hello everyone,

Unfortunately, I will be out again today. You will continue to develop your Dystopian Trailers in your groups. In your groups, follow the directions below:
  1. Bring up the Dystopian Project Proposal you were working on last class:
    Dystopian Project Proposal
  2. Scroll down the Dystopian Trailer Proposal to the Three Act Structure part (right under question 8). You must include important plot points from your fictitious story in your trailer.
    Spend time developing all the scenes you plan to film for your trailer following the Three Act Structure. Most groups usually have anywhere from 5 to 7 total scenes that make up their trailers. If you want, you can get creative with how you plan out your story. For example, you can use some of the large white post it note papers to lay lay everything out. This is a photo from my middle school students years ago planning out a short film:



    It's helpful to use a large piece of paper to develop everything that's going to happen in your trailer.
  3. The next step involves writing your script. THE TWO COLUMN SCRIPT TEMPLATE IS ON THE BOTTOM OF The Dystopian Project Proposal. You are limited to 2 minutes (before credits roll) for your trailer. So your script shouldn't be longer than two pages. It's important to include EVERYTHING in your script that you plan to include in your trailer. Sound effects, music, text slides, dialogue, action, etc.

    PLEASE DIVIDE YOUR SCRIPT INTO THE THREE ACTS. 
I will sit with each group Wednesday and grade this work. The final step after this is creating your storyboards. But we will do that Wednesday. 

PLEASE START REVIEWING YOUR CALENDARS SO YOU CAN FIGURE OUT WHEN YOU WILL BE ABLE TO FILM. THE GOAL IS THAT EVERYONE IS READY TO FILM BY THE END F THIS WEEK.
