OMAM Movie Trailer Project 
Students will create a movie trailer based on a book. Their job is to think about what their targeted audience is and market the movie trailer to their tastes. They must capture the essence, It must illustrate your knowledge of story elements such as characterization and theme. It must also show your understanding of theme, not topic themes. Use ethos, pathos, and logos in your presentation.

Exceeds

Scenes are chosen appropriately. They are short and filled with text or action, or other relevant moments from the story line. Symbol and essence is clear. Scenes include all members from group.

Scenes are chosen appropriately for the most part, with movie's essence basically captured. A few scenes might not be relevant to capturing the essence of the novel, or symbol may be questionable.
Working towards

Scenes chosen do not add to trailer and are weak. Symbol scene is off or missing. Many clips are lengthy or leave me wondering what they have to do with the movie's essence.

I do not see a clear connection at all to your movie trailer scenes and the essence of what the director was trying to say.

Group Dynamics/Planning

Exceeds

You seemed to work well together. Your movie looks like you all contributed effectively. knew your roles, and planned it out. Everyone had a share.
Meets

Overall it looks like your group worked together on this, but some evidence that you had a breakdown in group dynamics exists. Did someone get left out?
Working towards

Your film did not seem to have a sense of teamwork. Either one person did too much or maybe one or two people didn't pull their share. It didn't seem to come together well.
Needs improvement

This looks like it was one person's project or even too few in the group knew what was going on. It was a mess.
