Visual Poetry Project

In order to get comfortable with iMovie and its abilities, choose one of your original poems and create a film, whereupon the text and/or voice of the poem is created. Use iMovie to edit and prepare the film. Your film should include a title, ending credits, and a sound track that appropriately sets the mood and tone of your poem. I suggest you use instrumental music (as opposed to lyrics) since this is text based.
