  1. Movie Pitch Project History Blue By Melissa Carp

  2. The Great Dionysia Festival The Great Dionysia festival was a festival that honored the god Dionysus, the god of wine, drunkenness, madness, ecstasy, masks, and impersonation. These festivals turned into being a tradition for the Greek people and it was called The Great Dionysia or City Dionysia. As it says in the article that I read, “this festival is highly significant as the origin of dramatic tragedy and comedy. There were tons of different events that happened throughout the festival. Some of the events included theatre, going to a sacred area and sacrificing animals, and more.

  4. The Greek Society The Greek Society was about honoring their superiors. This was completely important to them because they wanted the gods to know how much they meant to them. They honored the gods by having festivals for them, and at these festivals they celebrated them. The Greek Society really taught me a lesson. The lesson was that you should honor the people that are important to you. I want you to leave this presentation with this thought in you head and apply it to those people who make a difference in you lives.
