Week 2 4/7/11

Review the book description found on the back cover of your book. Using the information, and this information alone, construct two alternate titles for the book that appeal to you.Pick one of the two titles and create a catch phrase and movie poster. Describe (using language that will explain what you are talking about so that we can "see" it) the movie poster to sell the new titled novel.

I am currently reading Beastly By Alex Finn, I got this book from Rachel.She said it was a good book, so far I am liking this book. So it is kind of easy plus hard to read, there are parts that can get confusing, but I can eventually figure out what the things that get confusing are. But other than that it's a pretty good book.

The back cover of the book has various things on it, such as the description of the book. Also the catch phrase " LOVE IS NEVER UGLY". The catch phrase is in bold capital letters, the font is in a sort of baby blue color. Then at the bottom of the book is like a movie dedication, well since the book is also a movie you'd expect it to be there. The back of the book is black as well as the rest of the book.

With this two alternate titles for the book that appeal to me probably be close to the book title.
Alternate title 1:Beauty to Beast-Catch phrase "You were once beautiful now your ugly."
Alternate title 2:Think Before you Judge Someone-Catch phrase "Watch what you say it could happen to you."
 
I think I would choose the first alternate title "Beauty to Beast". I would choose that one because Beastly is mostly about thus guy named Kyle Kindsbury. His father is rich so he's basically rich too. So he goes to this school for the rich and beautiful. He usually judges people on there looks. So when Kendra comes along and watches what Kyle does, she decides that he need to feel what it's like to be the other person. I think it's a sort of don't judge people thing or maybe it's the thing were you do something and it comes back on you. I don't know what's that called so yeah. So one night after the dance Kyle manages to get home from his girl friends house. He finds Kindra (who's a witch by the way) sitting on his bed. That's when it all happens, Kyle becomes Beastly.


There are various things that i would choose for the movie poster. I think I  would choose a dark gray kind of back ground. I would have a kind of gray scale color of a bridge. The bridge will have a couple on it and beastly would be under the bridge. It would be night time. There would be a moon, the moon would be full and dark. While beastly was under the bridge this girl about his age would be running to the under neath of the bridge. She'd see Beastly and smile unlike the other people under the bridge, who would be running away. Beastly would be wearing a long black cape, black jeans, and a black shirt. The girl would be wearing about the same thing but she's wearing a long black dress with a sweater. She'd be looking towards beastly.


I have only made it partly through the book so I think that the first title would still be good. I haven't seen the movie yet but i really want to. So I will read the book first.
