APRIL

...THAT'S A WRAP....almost...

April will be a screen play over the World Wars of the 20th century - and the Cold War which followed...we have almost wrapped up our epic film of mankind's journey through time...


"We're ready for our closeup!"

STARRING the leading roles of Kaiser Wilhelm, Czar Nicholas II...but also Benito Mussolini, Adolf Hitler, Dwight D. Eisenhower, FDR, Truman....and so many other extras we can't list them here....











We should finish our reading for this year this month (or the beginning of May)...if all goes according to plan...you lucky few...

The PROJECT
Time Travel Television Show

You will be creating a SCREENPLAY and PERFORMING your own historical cross-over performance which will be "filmed" in MAY (time to be scheduled later).

Just like the Twilight Zone episode we saw in class, your objective is to put on your time-warp, historic comparison play before an audience that will "rate" your episode.

If you lost your rubric and instructions, you can obtain a new one by CLICKING HERE.

Remember! It must be entirely BLACK and WHITE (no color [just like in the 1960s])...

SCREENPLAY format sample - click here!

Don't forget to include a time-associated 30 second commercial in your "film."

SCREENPLAY deadline: Thursday, April 27 (last Thursday of the Month)
FILMING schedule: May (TBD)
