Silent Reaction

Silent Reaction

Choose a commercial TV or excerpt from a TV show or movie and make a “copy cat” version with the same intent and message as the original only you will act the film out SILENTLY.  Everything will depend on your actions.  Simply choose a certain scene from a movie and act it out again silently. The charades of the scene will definitely make it far funnier than the original. You can add music (royalty free) to make the actions more interesting.

PROCEDURE

      Capture the original on tape or watch on YouTube

      Brainstorm with your group possible ways to

      recreate the original scene

      Assign roles to members of your group

      Design a script which lays out the different shots in your production, step by step

      Create a storyboard which includes sketches of clips, types of effects angles and dialogue   notes as necessary

      Create as close to the original version as possible in your team

      In the final product, the original will be followed by your version

      The clip should not exceed 2 minute  (4 minutes in total)

You will begin by selecting a SHORT clip from a movie. Assign roles and study the scene. Keep track of all movements as you will be acting this out as the ONLY means of communication. You will have to deliver the message without sound. You can later score the film with sound (all original)
