2. Research
Suggestions: Start your video with some interesting information (something that most people don’t know) or a favorite quote.
Interviews, site visits, online, books, magazines, artifacts.
No copy and paste allowed. Must be original work.
3. Script: Add Dialogue & Setting
Why do we want to see setbacks in a story?Setbacks create drama. While they're not fun in real life they do make good fiction.Imagine how uneventful Jack and the Beanstalk would be if it went like this: Jack's family was very poor, so Jack sold the family cow at market so they would have some money. The end.
Setbacks in the story of Jack and the Beanstalk include: A peddler convincing Jack to trade his cow for a handful of beans; a man-eating giant guarding treasure in a castle at the top of the beanstalk. These setbacks help keep readers interested in the story.
Have students collaborate on a script together in Google Docs.

Types Of ShotsClose-up: Only the face of the character. Good for showing emotion.Long Shot/Wide Angle: Zoomed outMedium Shot or Mid-shot: Frames a character from waist up to just past their head. Shows the character’s expression & body language. Often used in dialogue scenes.
Planning Your ShotsShot 1 needs to tell us:- Location- Characters present- Tone of the scene
How to do it:I’d suggest using a long shot of the boy exploring the cellar, shot from behind a pile of old furniture at the back of the room
When You Get the Shot Right
- The film feels more professional.- The audience doesn’t get confused.- The audience can follow the events of the story
by imagining the space where your film takes place.
