Final Project
Directions: Create a movie that addresses a significant issue in society, sufficiently describe that issue, and offer potential solutions to that problem. Your option on what focus area to cover is essentially endless, but make sure you chose a topic that may be expressed with visual imagery, facts, and other supporting information. Additionally, you must provide a realistic and credible solution to your societal issue.
You may use Movie Maker, iMovie, Powerpoint, or any other visual/audio format to present your project. All projects will be viewed in class.
Requirements:
· Length of movie/project must correspond to the length of one song
· Projects must:
o Provide a detailed description of the issue(facts, statistics, quotes)
o Provide images to display the issue(avoid pixilation issues)
o Include a song as background music(the words or the tone must connect to the issue)
o Offer a solution(s) to solve the issue(written and/or visual)
o The final slide must include at least 5 sources used for your movie.
You can choose to work on this by yourself or to do this with a partner. All final project should be finalized correctly and saved in the I Drive of your teacher under the appropriate class period.
