Media Press Kit

• This project involves creating a media press kit for a non-existent movie based on the novel you read. This media press kit will include a movie trailer AND a movie poster. 

• You may choose to use a program on a phone, tablet, or computer (such as iMovie or Canva) to complete this project. If you have knowledge of a program aside from the ones I mentioned, you are welcome to use it.

Movie Trailer

• Your movie trailer must be around 60 seconds long. 

• Your movie trailer must include video and should not consist of still pictures ONLY.

• Your movie trailer must show a good understanding of the characters' personalities and the story’s plot, BUT, do not give too much away. The purpose of a trailer is to persuade someone to go see your movie in a theater. You don't want to tell the whole story in your trailer.

• Trailers must be your own original work. They must be creative and entertaining. That's what a movie trailer is supposed to do! 

Movie Poster

• Your poster must be on a piece of posterboard. 

• Your movie poster must include information about the movie, including a catchy tagline, which actors you might feature in your movie, interesting imagery and colorful and eye-catching illustrations or pictures, and information about who made the movie (see the examples below). 

• The purpose of a poster is to entice someone to go see your movie in a theater. You don't want to tell the whole story in your poster.

• Posters must be your own original work. They must be creative and entertaining. That's what a movie poster is supposed to be!
