| NBC is impressed with early reports of 'Ado' - it seems there is a big buzz surrounding this project. Since television studios are notorious for using the same idea over and over again, they have decided to try out a version of Much Ado About Nothing set in a time other than the Elizabethan era. They are calling on you to update this classic. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| You will need to create a sketch for a 60-90 second commercial for this updated story. NBC will gather feedback based on your proposal and determine if they would like to pursue this project further. Using your knowledge of the story, familiarity with the language, and your creative abilities, set this story in another time and place, and update the language when necessary. |

| The sketch will include specific details about the location, number of actors, costume, set design, and dialogue to be spoken in the ad. It must also include at least 4 lines of original dialogue from the original play. Use the 'Film Terms for Screenwriting Exercise' handout you received earlier this year as a guideline. |
