_InDesign HW1: Pick three movies. They could be movies you’ve seen or movies you haven’t seen. Watch or re-watch them combing through the script, looking for a 1 sentence quote that is quintessential to the meaning of the movie. For example in the famous film, Casablanca, the key line to the film is the line that the main character says to his love interest as he leaves on a plane. He looks at her and says “Here’s lookin’ at you kid.” Another quote could be “Of all the gin joints, in all the world, she walks into mine.” These lines are not only famous, but help us get at the plot of the film. Your movie choice is open, but try and pick something that is popularly known. Genres with famous one-liners usually fall into the categories of classics or horror films.
After you pick the three movies, pull out at least 2 options for one-liners for each movie. So you should have 6 one liner options in total. Please compile in one document to show Prof. Colby.
Additionally pick an object for each movie that could assist in representing the storyline. For Casablanca it might be an airplane. Due on the following Tuesday (1 week to complete).
