Careful!!! These movies have sound effects/music. Make sure your volume is at an appropriate level before playing them. Below the videos are the rules for this assignment. The top one is the best example as it is animation placed "on top of" a video clip. The lower one also utilizes a moving background.

Your "trailer" must have a video background. That is the rule; it adds a layer of difficulty.
