Before starting this assignment, my group had several different ideas for how we could in corporate media into the classroom. We considered creating a book trailer, or using various advertisements in order to teach students the persuasive power and role of the thesis statement. However, we eventually settled on using various movie clips in order to teach the heroic journey to students. This could be accomplished with almost any movie, however, for the purpose of this assignment we picked Harry Potter. Understanding the heroic journey directly corresponds to multiple curriculum requirements.

The project sounds pretty interesting. During class it looked like you were making some good progress on the project. I see that you have a copyright link, you have your storyboards posted and now (a little late) you have your project description posted.
