Language Objective: Correctly use terms related to the concept of propaganda during small group creation of commercials.
Essential Question: How can I demonstrate common propaganda techniques?
In today's class, we return to the Media Center and use MovieMaker to create video commercials that demonstrate common propaganda techniques. Using footage gathered in previous classes, students will create commercials that demonstrate bandwagon, testimonial, transfer, emotional words, and repetition.Instructions: First, use information from our MovieMaker tutorial or go here for advice on how to create your commercial. As you begin the editing process, the value of a storyboard will become evident. Add titles and credits. Here's a place for royalty-free music; remember to give appropriate credit. After you have your commercial the way you want it, you have to go to Finish and Save to Your Computer. Save it in the G drive Apps on SERMS. Look in Barber and save your film in the Commercials 2008 folder. Work diligently; our time is limited. Commercials will be screened on Friday.
