 * You have been selected by Gregory Maguire to create an engaging trailer for the film version of //Wicked// for a cable network. The cable network can only air the most critical parts of the novel, so you must convince them that you are able to identify the key facets of the novel. You must pick what you feel is the MOST important scene in Wicked and present your **interpretation** of that scene inside the trailer. This is not an ordinary "shoot" and "edit". You need to do your best to show the network that you can use art, and even words to present your angle. They want to see your creativity and originality! You need to justify to the powers that be you reasoning for your scene selection. Top independant film makers from all over the country have been approached with the task and you must stand out above the rest! Your team of three film makers (including yourself) will also be chronicling its journey on the team blog. This will include your factual evidence, your reasons behind your selection and the story of your teams collaboration (this could be juicier then the "Hills."
