Small Lesson having students use their creativity and media skills to create a Short similar to YouTube Shorts (can be posted to YourTube or not) based off motivation. Use of words, music, images, themes, and presentation to create the viewer's desire to do as the short encourages.
MOTIVATION: The desire to to act in service of a GOAL.
Object: You will create a YouTube Short on a motivational theme of your choice. You will need
to choose a theme to your short. Your words/quotes need to match your theme clearly. The
images or video behind the words or the person speaking should match your theme and if you
choose to use music for your background it should be an addition to support the feel of the

YouTube channel.
