MOVIE REVIEW VIDEO

Directions: Create a video that reviews a movie in either a positive, negative, or a bit of both fashion.

Here are the requirements:
1. No time limit for the video but it should completely address the questions on the outline.
2. EVERY person needs to speak in the video. I suggest each person in the group takes a section of the outline to read (5 sections total)
3. Video may either be done with people on camera or entirely with b-roll and voice overs.
4. You need to use still photos from the movie or use a web-based YouTube ripper for scenes from the movie.
5. The photos and scenes you select should highlight what you are talking about.
6. You will be graded on your technical skills, the thoroughness of your review, and your use of specific evidence from the movie to support your review. A review without support or examples will not receive a high grade.

Work as a group. Your movie is due Feb 12 (Wednesday)
