PSA+Instructions

The final assignment you will create for this class is a Public Service Announcement (PSA). WeVideo is the program you will use to create your PSA. PSA's are used to inform and persuade people. For this assignment you will chose a main message from our novel "Fever, 1793". You will need to decide who your audience is and how you will get that message to them. Once again you will use flickr to chose images for this assignmen. You will also need to create some videos and chose music that you will use to help get that message across. After creating your PSA using WeVideo, you will upload it onto YouTube and share your link on our wiki.

**__5 Components that your PSA's will include:__** **1) Images--**These can be your own original images or ones that you've found in creative commons on flickr.

**2) Videos--** These will be created by you.

**3) Music --** This can be found on WeVideo

**4) A Script--** You will write an original script that conveys your main message to your chosen audience. This script should be inspirational, promote change, and end with a question that promotes deeper thought from your audience,

**5) A credit slide--** You should create a slide that gives credit to all of your sources. Don't forget to give credit to yourself for any original images and videos.

Your PSA should be no longer than one and a half minutes.
