Anthem Book Trailer
Directions and Rubric
We’ve discussed several different themes in Anthem. Now it’s your turn to show how the theme emerged. Using One True Media, you will create a book trailer that depicts the themes of the book. Be creative. You can use still photos or you can use video footage. If you want to create a video with a group, no more than 2 people in a group. In this case, 2 people will submit one video. Before you start the video process, you will create a storyboard. The storyboard is an outline for your video. You will turn in your storyboard once you are finished. After you’ve completed your video, you will upload it to YouTube. I have created an account for our class. If you have the capability, you can use any other software to create your video, just as long as you are able to upload the video to YouTube. This is due October 19. We will use one class period in the computer lab to work on these.
