CPT 10 Summative Project
Project Outline: Movie Making Campaign
This project will consist of both group and individual components. You have a choice of different parts of the project you would like to do. If you do a specific component completely on your own, the number under the column marked Individual is the value that goes towards your total number of marks (100).You must complete enough components so your mark equals 100. If you work with another person, then you get the mark value listed under the 2 column. If your group has three people and you share equally in each component, then you get the value under the 3 column. You can combine both individual and group components together.
For example:
You work with 1 other person on the movie trailer. Your project value is 50. You now must get 50 more marks to get to 100. If you then do a movie theatre design by yourself, then you get 40 more marks towards your total. That brings you to 90. You need 10 more marks to get to 100. You can choose another individual component worth 10 marks. That would be either the business card or the DVD label.
Remember, you are responsible for your own mark, so make sure you have everything completed and handed in by ______
