Pitch for new Gothic film

Below is the worksheet distributed in class to help you with the pitch.

And here is the home-learning for next week:
a. All PiTCH and POSTER work to be completed for next lesson (next week) in neat. You might wish to present all this neatly on a handout or in a PPT. The poster should be neat, coloured in and annotated.
If you wish, you can start a new individual blog to complete and present their Gothic work; send me your URL if you want me to link it from here.
