For your trailer to be complete and turned in, you must have the following items in the Book Trailer folder inside of 2011>English>Book Trailers.
- Your storyboard file
- A bibliography file with all of your image and audio credits it should be called Name-BookTrailerDocumentation (ex: Susie-BookTrailerDocumentation)
- Your final video. It should be exported as a medium m4v file and called Name-Title (ex: Billy-HarryPotter.m4v). (Click here for a tutorial on how to do this.)
- Your final video MUST have closing credits which lists all of your image and audio credits, in order of appearance.
- Make sure you create your project as Wide Screen
Here is a list of video tutorials that will help you finish creating your project. If you have a question, please raise your hand. I am happy to teach any of these items if you do not understand the video. If you have never used iMovie and would like more instruction, just ask.
