Soundtrack ProjectThe instructions for creating your music soundtrack.By: Jo Troller
What is expected from you!You will be graded on three different areas of the project.1. Demonstration of knowledge of Antony and Cleopatra.2. Your song selections and explanation of why you picked the songs for specific scenes.3. Your oral presentation to the class.
Demonstration of KnowledgeFirst thing is first. Before you even begin choosing the songs for your project you will need to have your base knowledge of Antony and Cleopatra.Think about character personalities.Think about symbolism within the play and symbols with the songs.Think about what is going on in the plot when you place a song.
Song SelectionOnce you have a strong understanding of the plot you may start song selection.You should have a minimum of 20 songs picked out, and they should coincide either with characters, the plot, or settings.Most soundtrack’s are good about picking songs that flow together. Check for specific styles and see how you can get the songs to flow. Would Michael Bublé be on the same soundtrack as Eminem?
Total the genres that are in your C.D.There is a large variety of music in the soundtrack, but Pop, Country, and Rock are the top three. Could you change the Techno, Metal, or Oldies to flow with the majority better? Or will you have a justification for only one of a style of song?
You will need a CD Cover!!!
