1. Macbeth The Project

2. What you will do Your mission, should you choose to accept it (and you’d better!)…. Create a storyboard for Macbeth with at least 10 original images (your original artwork).

3. You should have 2 images per act (5 acts x 2 images = 10). Present images in the order they would appear in the play. Next to each image, include: A properly cited passage (Act and Scene) from the play that explains the action depicted in the image.

4. A brief summary or explanation of the scene. Six of your ten images must be a labeled example of: o Exposition o Exciting Force o Rising Action o Climax o Falling Action o Catastrophe All images, quotes and descriptions should be mounted cleanly and securely on a poster board.

5. Be prepared to give a brief presentation of your finished storyboard on the due date. What I will look for while grading: Quality 10 original images Appropriate quotes for each image Accurate summaries / explanations for each image Clean presentation Effort

6. Extra Credit I will give up to 5 extra points for each image you include beyond the minimum 10. These images must be included on your poster board. 5 extra images is the limit (for a maximum of 25 extra points). Good Luck!

7. Homework Tonight Chose a scene from Act II or III and rewrite it using modern slang, being careful to retain Shakespeare's purpose.
