BOOK TRAILERS

A **book trailer** is a video advertisement for a book which employs techniques similar to those of movie trailers. They are circulated on television and online in most common digital video formats. ( [] )

Have you ever written a book report? Who did you write it for? What was the purpose? We are going to create book trailers about books we have read. The purpose is to get other students excited about the book you read so they will read it also.

=Steps Of The Process!=

Create a book trailer about a novel you have read to share your excitement with other students and staff! ** STEP TWO – Information Seeking Strategies (What will I use to locate the information I need?) ** How will you find the information for your book trailer? By choosing and reading a novel of course! You will also need images, music, and maybe sound effects! ** STEP THREE – Location & Access of Information (Where can I find the information I need?) ** Think about the information you will need. Will you need images? Will you search using keywords?
 * STEP ONE – Your Task (What needs to be done?) **

** STEP FOUR – Collection of Information (Read, Listen, View!) ** __ Engage the Source: __ Read the novel.

__ Collect the Information: __ Use the ** //“As You Read – Book Trailer Planning Sheet”// ** as you read to collect information and ideas for your book trailer. Use the information collected on your planning sheet as you locate and collect media (images, sound, sound effects) for your book trailer. Save your media to your drive.
