 * Costume
 * Storyline (the story)
 * Music
 * Cinematography (camera movements and angles)
 * Special Effects
 * Get a Film Critique Rough Draft paper from the counter
 * Complete this entire thing. You will need to make sure you have all the information filled in
 * The TOPICS are the categories from your note sheet (so you will need to use your notes)
 * When it is complete, see Mrs. Ferris for a stamp and your Film Critique Rubric
 * Using the Film Critique Rubric you need to write a 5 paragraph essay following the format provided
 * You must make sure all things are completed and done correctly
 * This format is very specific to this class so taking work done by someone else will be very easy to spot and will result in a ZERO on this project
 * Proofread your essay
 * When you are done you will PRINT it out
 * You will need to staple it together in the following order:
 * Rubric (1/2 sheet)
 * Essay (printed)
 * Notes (on lined paper)
 * Rough Draft Sheet (with instructor stamp on it showing it was approved)
 * Staple must be in the upper left corner of the page
 * Turn all of this into Mrs. Ferris (do not just leave it somewhere)
