Write a script and storyboard for a video that presents the story of Macbeth in 60 seconds. If the technology is available, you
must work with a group to select the best script and storyboard and then record the video; you and your classmates will be the performers. To fit the entire story of Macbeth into one minute, you must select only the most important events and characters from the play. You must therefore show a good understanding of the overall plot. You must also use careful pacing to present your shortened version of Macbeth in a way that an audience can understand.
Your project should include the following elements:
A script divided into short scenes that depict only the essential moments from Macbeth
Dialogue made up entirely of lines from Macbeth
A setting (in this case, a set) that is appropriate to the story
An overall tone and mood that fit the play
A storyboard that shows what the actors should be doing in each scene
You should have completed a draft of this assignment in the activity before this one. If you haven't done so, go back and complete that activity now.
Write a single scene that uses rich description to build suspense. Use vivid imagery that conveys elements of the supernatural in order to present a single, suspenseful moment to your readers.
The purpose of an epic poem is to show us the exploits of a particular hero or set of heroes. It usually involves important elements of history and can spread across several countries and periods of time or across different planes of existence (for example, "The Divine Comedy" by Dante takes place in heaven and hell. A lyric poem, though, is usually focused on an individual emotion or experience.
