Write a script and storyboard for a video that presents the story of Macbeth in 60

seconds. If the technology is available, you must work with a group to select the best
script and storyboard and then record the video; you and your classmates will be the
performers.
To fit the entire story of Macbeth into one minute, you must select only the most
important events and characters from the play. You must therefore show a good
understanding of the overall plot. You must also use careful pacing to present your
shortened version of Macbeth in a way that an audience can understand.

Answer:

Act 1.

Macbeth and Banquo find three witches. According to the witches, Macbeth will be thane of Cowder and king of Scotland. Banquo's offspring will rule. Banquo was not given the throne. The generals want answers, but the witches disappear. As a victory prize, King Duncan appoints Macbeth Thane of Cowder. The king will visit Macbeth Castle. Lady Macbeth swears to make Macbeth king after hearing about the prophesy and new title.

Act II.

King Duncan arrives at Macbeth's castle. Macbeth's family plans to kill the king while everyone is sleeping. Lady Macbeth poisoned the guard so Macbeth could kill the king. Macbeth has concerns about killing the king, but Lady Macbeth encourages him to go through with it. Someone came minutes after the cleanup. Macduff finds the murder. Macbeth stops mourning by killing the foolish guard. Malcolm and Donalbain flee to safety.

Act III.

Macbeth ruled Scotland. Since learning about Bongo's heirs, guilt has been his enemy. Banquo was killed, but Florence fled. Macbeth went insane after encountering Bongous' ghost at his royal banquet. Lady Macbeth's hallucinations could not hide her husband's behavior.

Act IV.

Macbeth again seeks witches. The witch's prophecy: He'll be safe until Birnam Wood attacks. Hearing that Bongous heirs would rule Scotland, he ordered the killing of Macduff's family. Macduff seeks Malcolm's help. Together, they fight Macbeth.

Act V.

Macbeth felt secure until Birnam Wood arrived at Dunsinane. Malcolm's soldiers hid among woodland branches. Lady Macbeth tells her secrets to doctors, then kills herself. Macbeth mourned his wife's death. Macduff loses the fight but challenges Macbeth. He knows he is doomed. Macduff succeeds and kills Macbeth. Malcolm becomes king.

Step-by-step explanation:

For me, the best way to tell a story is to have my pals play the parts or read the story on video. This will show that you've remembered key details from the whole story.
