Project rubric Marking Period

You will be creating a music video for a song sung in Spanish. You should choose a
song that you feel comfortable with as you will be translating it and creating the
video to go along with the meaning of the lyrics. Your translation of the song should
appear in the video itself in the form of subtitles or cue cards. You will be required
to introduce your music video with a short prologue and be required to answer in
Spanish any questions posed to you after the video. In your prologue you must
speak to us in Spanish about the process of making the video. Specifically, you
must tell us why you chose the song and three facts about the performer or
songwriter. You also must immediately precede the video with the Spanish
expression for I hope you like it!
