This week's assignment is creating a Google Slideshow Presentation on your favorite film OR your favorite film director.
The slideshow must contain the following information:
Slide One - the title of the film and a still image of it (let me know if you don't know how to do that.)
Slide Two - the year the film came out, who directed it, and which STUDIO produced it (go to IMDb.com - I will show you in class), and the genre of the film (again, it will be on IMDb.com)
Slide Three - the main 3 actors in the film (you can list more if you want)
Slide Four - the trailer for the film
Slide Five - Fun Fact #1
Slide Six - Fun Fact #2
Slide Seven - the reason why you like this film so much and why you recommend it to others.

Lastly - let me know if you want to present this to class in the last week of school.

In a Google Doc, please answer the following questions:
1) Name two careers in film that sound the most interesting to you and tell me WHY.
2) Name the one career that sounds the least interesting to you and tell me WHY.
3) What is one career that you had never heard of?
4) Which type of production do you think would be the most fun to work for: TV commercials, Music Videos, big budget feature films, low budget independent films, or TV shows and tell me WHY.
5) Do films / TV play an important role in your life? On a scale of 1-10, how important are they?

Do on EdPuzzle

You will choose a still frame (an image) from one of your favorite films and you will list TEN items of mise-en-scene within that still frame. Put in your Google IMAGE search the film name and "still shots", "still frames", or "production stills" - they'll all get you some good images.

Please do this AFTER class today

Just like last week, you will choose 5 camera angle types to present in any form that is easy for you. You can make a google doc, a google slideshow, or simply email the 5 shots to me. All examples are in this week's slideshow. If you are able to take the photos yourself, that is ideal. But if you can't, you can find existing images from the web to submit.

If you are able to use a (phone) camera - you need to create FIVE shots from the shot types doc and submit them to me, telling me exactly which shots you're doing. For example:
Extreme Close Up (then show me the image you took), Medium Shot (then show me the pic), Wide Shot (show me the pic), etc.

If you do not have access to a camera and /or cannot upload photos to submit, you can google image these shots and put them into a doc and let me know what they are.

If emailing is easier than putting onto a Google Doc, that's ok - just mark it as done on the Google Classroom and make sure I get the email.

For this week's assignment, you can choose to either write a scene between 2-4 people based on a dream you had OR a paragraph synopsis (brief summary) of the dream as a film idea. Please submit a Google Doc. Check out these facts on dreams to help you understand them.

Please log in DIRECTLY THROUGH EDPUZZLE

Please submit a google doc with your scene between your two characters. Remember - a minimum of 3 lines of dialogue each.

Please take this by 1:00 pm

Make Sure you answer the questions.

Please tell me the number of your characters (from this week's slideshow) and write one paragraph each with explicit details about each character.

On a Google Doc, you will tell me 1) Which photo you used 2) Your Movie Title, and 3) Your Logline. Although the doc isn't due till Friday, you must present these in class on Thursday.

Please answer this after you've watched this historic film

You will be assigned one of the six character from the Google Slideshow. You must have at least 7 facts about your character to bring him/ her / them to life. Think about their goals, habits, emotions, friend groups, family life, hobbies, etc. Turn in this character development description on a Google Doc. Please put your name on the doc.

On EdPuzzle, watch the video for Crash Course Film Production (NOT film history this week).

Here is the quiz. You will have until 1:00 pm to finish

Go to EdPuzzle and watch CCFH #2. See my notes within the video and answer the questions within EdPuzzle.

We will be going over this slideshow together in class on Monday and you will have the rest of the week to come up with your original film "The Game of Opposites" film pitch. We will be presenting your film pitches in class next week.

Watch the approx. 10 min video in EdPuzzle and answer the 6 questions within EdPuzzle.

We will go over this assignment in the zoom on Monday. I just tried to make this open for everyone to access by "publishing to the web" but if you still can't open it, lmk. Otherwise, make a copy of the slideshow and then you can go in to edit / view. https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/e/2PACX-1vQbMG2-1GkUuYOHodPDeexJ0Z9LwRo4uvExOVa-Ncple3o22Df4y9u113OO5fbjkZSV66cb0-q1sc4C/pub?start=false&loop=false&delayms=3000
