The fourth nine weeks project will entail creating a short film. It will not only be judged on the effectiveness of your final cut but also on your ability to follow the process and on how well you attempt to implement the techniques and ideas studied in the film unit. No part of this project may be used to fulfill requirements for other courses.
The treatment writer should write 10+ lines per minute and share the document with Mr. Bellini by the due date.
Your screenplay should be 1-2 pages/minute. Include descriptions of required shots and a leitmotif.
