Evans Storyboard for FRIT 7233 (NOTE TO THE PROFESSOR: I am including my video introduction as the beginning of my trailer in Movie Maker. I included the description of this within this storyboard. My video introduction is a scripted interaction with my book club and then I give a summary to the group. I made the storyboard flexible enough to have the book trailer and introduction together OR as separate stand-alone pieces, depending upon your feedback. I also included my notes prior to the story board with this submission because I wanted you to know my target audience. Please let me know if this is okay. You said to have fun with it and I certainly have! I have a clear vision for this I just hope I can achieve it in Movie Maker, as this will be my first experience with it. My book trailer deals with the subject matter as opposed to focusing on the individual characters because of the nature of the story. I wanted to hook the audience and not give away any spoilers. Thanks for any and all feedback.

would you do if suddenly you were disconnected? What if the electrical grid went down, not just during this winter storm, but for weeks, months, years? Yeah, thats right, all of the electronic devices you find so critical to your life just suddenly STOPPED. Think about it. pan crowd for reactions No iPods, no cell phones, no more Twitter, no more electricity. What would you do? How would you survive? How would you communicate? What would your priorities become? How would YOU survive? close up shots of blank student faces; back to medium shot of me- Well that is just what our book of the month is about. As you read One Second After by William Forstchen you are going to experience the struggle faced by one American family who lives through an unexpected electromagnetic pulse attack on the United States. All electrical devices are rendered useless by the EMP and one family faces the challenges this provides. The book this month shows the struggle to live in a world without electricity, modern conveniences, mass communication, grocery stores, cars, medicine. What would you worry about first: food, water, safety? You will read about it all this month in One Second After. I think you are going to like it. Who wants to watch the trailer? close up of students Students ad lib - Yeah. Sounds good.
