Film Project

Your assignment is to produce a branded film of your own to advertise a product of your choice. It could be as simple as a pencil, a textbook or a cell phone. The important part is not what product you pick but how you try to present it.

The film should be about 3-5 minutes long and every group member needs to participate!



Preferably you write a dialogue to act out so you can interact with each other but it is not a must. Feel free to come up with your own ideas and be creative!

To begin with you need to plan your film deciding who has what role, plan the different shots, scenes, write a screen play etc.

To shoot the film and edit it you can use iMovie on your iMacs. You can film the different scenes using your mobile phone and send them to your email.
