School Project (Halo: Cryptum)

So recently I've read Halo: Cryptum over the summer, and I have to make a book advertisement for it. The thing that I need help with is coming up with a creative theme, but for the love of my life I can't think of one. Can anyone give me a few good ideas.

  • Maybe you should do your project on one of the fantastic "short" stories in Halo: Evolutions.

  • [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FopyRHHlt3M]I don't think you should do it for a school project. I once read a Halo book for a project and my summery took up over 3 pages, and Cryptum is one of those books that cannot be summarized in a few paragraphs.[/url] [Edited on 09.20.2012 3:39 PM PDT]

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] MaxRealflugel A creative theme, eh? Could you, pehaps, be a little more specific? And some background info on the advert as well. Why do you need it? What purpose will it serve? Why Halo: Cryptum?[/quote] These are the questions that need to be answered. What are you selling with the Ad? Look at it from a salesperson perspective also.

  • Unraveling of a long lost society, a glimpse at ancient events that shaped the world today. I think an ad for Cryptum is worthwhile.

  • Just bring in the Scale and sizing of massive architectures. Advanced society, Alien races and structure.

  • Define creative theme. Is it an artistic theme to guide your project or is it the theme of the book itself? [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] ajw34307 I think Cryptum is a bad choice for your project because it's a classical sci-fi book and full of complicated ideas, language and thematic implications. [/quote] Do tell.

Could have done the same at A-level no sweat. 'sides, English Language students create literature - you just read someone else's brilliance and then yammer on about it. The painter is remembered in history, not the curator who discusses it. ;)
