iMovie Commercial

Third Grade Final Book Commercial

Assignment: Our final book commercial will be an actual filmed-commercial created in iMovie.

The student:

• Chooses a book

• Gets it approved by his/her teacher.

• Designs a commercial for iMovie that gets the viewer to want to read the book

• Uses the rubric on the bottom of this page as a guide

• Writes a script or storyboard and practices it—this will be turned in with the commercial.

• Keeps the commercial to between 60 and 90 seconds. (Student may try to persuade his/her teacher to make it longer if he/she thinks that is necessary.)

• Previews the film BEFORE turning it in to make sure that all the requirements on the rubric have been included and that the commercial says EXACTLY what it is supposed to say.

-Due dates will be between 5/30-6/2. It may be turned in earlier.

Practice speaking slowly, clearly and loudly. Smile. Sound excited about the book to "sell" it. Practice, practice, practice. Someone else should proof it before it is shared to Quicktime. Any appropriate props or music may be used.

MUCH OF THIS PROJECT WILL BE COMPLETED AT SCHOOL
