Film Grammar Reflection
Watch a film of your choice and critique two scenes using two elements of film grammar we’ve learned this semester. Does the film work? A mixed success? A failure? You may explain how the film has inventive camerawork but suffers as a story, for example; or you might praise the costumes but give thumbs down to the acting. The requirements:
- You may not use an MCU or DC adaptation or any comic book or graphic novel adaptation. Too easy!
- Your film must have been made before 2010.
Prove your points by citing your film. Be sure to name the personnel (director, cinematographer, visual designer, etc.) when relevant.
Your reflection must be 1-2 pages long. Do not use terms like “I believe,” “personally,” “I think,” “I feel.” Do not use first person. Don’t evaluate these films (“Night of the Living Dead is a hilarious film”). Avoid a casual, chatty, gossipy tone.
Film Grammar Reflection
Finally, your abstracts should mention in the first sentence what arguments you’ll make about your film.
