Outline of the course Linear – 2 year course… 70% exam, 30% NEA Component 3: Production - Non-exam assessment 30% of qualification This component assesses one production and its evaluative analysis. Learners produce: either a short film (4-5 minutes) or a screenplay for a short film (1600-1800 words) plus a digitally photographed storyboard of a key section from the screenplay an evaluative analysis (1600 - 1800 words)

Stationery Requirements You will need to purchase a lever arch file and at least 10 dividers (these can be picked up really cheaply from places like ‘The Works’) You will also need A4 hole punched paper which can be put into a file For coursework tasks, you’ll need access to a camera (though most smart phones now have good enough cameras) Pens (black/blue/red)

How is what we read in a film text influenced by the world around us? TASK 1: Watch the clip. In pairs, consider the mood of the film. What are the audience encouraged to feel? How are they encouraged to feel this way? TASK 2: The film, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, is an independent film made in the US in 2004. What major event happened in the US shortly before this? How might ESotSM reflect the attitude of the US post 9/11? What have you learnt about how we decode images? ENCODE: The meaning put into a media text (how producers try to make audiences think or feel a certain way) DECODE: The meaning taken from a text by the audience, which is dependent on our experiences, media and the wider world around us

Bridging work – Film Studies Over summer, you should choose a 2 minute sequence from one film of your choice (any genre) and analyse the mise-en-scene (everything in the frame). Use the sheet to help you if you’re unsure on key terms. You need to consider the impact/effect of this e.g. The lighting is high key which suggests a positive atmosphere and comfortable relationship between the family In September, you will present these film clips to the class with your analysis. You must be able to supply this clip, so it could be on YouTube, DVD, Netflix etc, but you are responsible for ensuring you have it available to watch in class

Final Tips Ensure you purchase your stationery before arriving in September, (lever arch files, dividers, lined and hole punched A4 pad, pens, calculator) – put the Media Language sheet I have given you in this so that it’s there as a guide at all times. File notes after EVERY lesson Complete all reading asked of you – we will tell you what to read in advance
