Much Ado About Nothing: more info about the project





Hi all, so here are some more instructions about the film you have to make:

-Now you must organize the tasks each member of the team must do. These are the tasks to be covered:
1. Director: is primarily responsible for the storytelling, creative decisions and acting of the film.
2. Scriptwriter: the one/s in charge of writing the script for the actors to learn.  I will provide you with a model script for the scene you have chosen that you can use as a starting point.
3. Storyboard artist. S/he must elaborate the storyboard, that is, the story in "comic" format that will be used as a model for the shooting of the scenes. You can do it online if you like (try here).
4. Production designer: creates the visual conception of the film and is in charge of the sets, locations, costumes, "special effects" and make up.
5. Director of photography:  S/he records the film and supervises photography.
6. Sound designer/Composer: chooses (or, why not, creates) the appropriate music and sound effects for the scenes. Ask Paloma for advice...
7. Actors, obviously. Every member must assume a role.


-As it´s also obvious, each team member must take over several tasks. Besides, I may introduce the changes in your organization I consider appropriate. 

-Deadlines:
1st delivery: April 4. List of members with their tasks and roles in the play.
2nd delivery: April 21 (handed in to me directly): The modified script. I´ll give it back to you checked.
3rd delivery: May 10. That day you must present the following items:
      1.The storyboard
      2.The film itself (in a common format, please).

-I have created a folder in Google Drive for each of the teams. I will put in each a sample script of the scene picked by your team (remember you can modify it) and more info like the props you need or the rubric I will use to evaluate the activity. The Director (I´ll send him/her an invitation to have access to the folder) is the person in charge of uploading the deliveries (only the 1st and 3rd, the second must be given directly to me) and report the other members about the information in the Drive folder.

-Evaluation: 1 point (it will be this term´s speaking mark together with LC participation):
-50% of the mark: the film (common mark for all members in the team).
-50% of the mark: individual performances (each member will be assessed individually).
