Ok guys!

You have been watching BE KIND REWIND at the laboratory classes,

so you have an idea about how to “remake” a movie! Well,

what this is all about is just that: REMAKING A MOVIE!

We will follow some steps before having all the fun!, it means we

are going to go on PRE-PRODUCTION:

1. Select the movie you would like to remake. This will be the presentation of your portfolio

(yes, a picture or a draw with your name, grade, etc.)

Now you are going to answer the following questions: (remember to develop your ideas!)

2. Why this movie?

3. What is the story about?

4. Would you include all the scenes in the movie?, would you delete some? Would you change any scene to make it better, worse, whatever?

5. What role would you like to play? An actor, actress, director, camera man, make up, special effects, etc? And why

6. How many people would you need to film your movie?

WARNING: This portfolio is a contest!, only four (4) portfolios will be selected to become the movie projects from your class! If you convince your sponsor (it means, me!) with an attractive idea, then I will give you the resources to shoot your movie! You will be able to select your production team and start preparing the production process!!!
