Julius Caesar Storyboard Project
Storyboard Text
- Act I
- "Beware the Ides of March."
- Act II
- Act III
- "Et tu, Brute?"
- (I: ii: 18) The Soothsayer comes and warns Caesar to "Beware the Ides of March. Caesar not giving into the man, and blowing off what he said, was a big mistake. This is an important scene because it is foreshadowing the rest of the story. This starts to get to Caesar, which we see throughout the story.
- Act IV
- "Thy evil spirit, Brutus."
- (II: ii: 13-26) Calpurnia has a dream, and in the dream she sees Caesars statue with blood running like a fountain. She was beyond frightened by this dream. Her exact quote after the dream states, "O Caesar, these things are beyond all use, and I do fear them." This dream could've saved Caesar's life, but his stubbornness gets in the way.
- Act V
- “Caesar, now be still, I killed not thee with half so good a will.”
- (III: i: 79) The conspirators finally gathered everyone together to kill Caesar. Whenever they all had stabbed Caesar, the last to stab him was his close friend, Brutus. In this scene Caesar's heart was broken before he was killed, his own friend stabbed him. Before he died he said, "Et tu, Brute?" Which means, "you as well, Brutus?"
- Theme
- (IV: iii: 281-284) The ghost of Caesar arrives and tells Brutus he will see him at Phillippi. This is a very big scene considering it is foreshadowing that something bad will happen at Phillippi. Brutus is worried in this scene, he was the last to kill his "friend" Caesar, and now his ghost has appeared. He knows Caesar will not rest his soul until he (Brutus) dies.
- (V: v: 50) Brutus, the honorable man, dies. All he did for good purpose, but died in the end. After winning the battle, he kills himself with his own sword. His dying words went out to Caesar which said, "“Caesar, now be still, / I killed not thee with half so good a will.” This was the most honorable thing he could've said before he passed.
- (II: ii: 43-49) I chose the theme to be "Be humble and kind." I chose this theme because in the story Caesar's head was too big for his body. He made many enemies for being so cocky and arrogant. Therefore, what the men did was wrong, but they couldn't have a suffering empire with a arrogant ruler.
