4 Unit 2 Embedded Assessment 2 In the first part of the unit, you read short stories and studied elements that help create a writer’s style. In this last part of the unit, you will continue looking at style, but this time through the lens of film. By viewing a specific director’s films, you will make connections between the choices the writer’s make with words and the choices that directors make with film techniques. Think about the Tim Burton films that you have viewed and analyzed. Choose three or four stylistic devices (cinematic techniques) that are common to three films. Write an essay analyzing the cinematic style of director Tim Burton. Your essay should focus on the ways in which the director uses stylistic techniques across films to achieve a desired effect.

Displays in-depth understanding of cinematic techniques and how they create special effects. Is logically organized.

6 Review Cinematic Techniques

7 COMPARING INTERPRETATIONS: TONE & MOOD p. 136 Mood: the atmosphere or predominant emotion in a literary work. What is the mood of the short film “Vincent”? What cinematic techniques does Burton use to establish the mood? Tone: the author’s attitude toward a subject. What is the speaker’s tone toward the character Vincent Malloy? What cinematic techniques does Burton use to convey the tone? While mood and tone are not interchangeable, they often work together. For example, an author may create a dark and depressing mood to express a serious distaste for the nature of poverty.
