Studying Silent Cinema Keaton booklet_compressed_watermark-3.pdf
Thanks for taking a look at my resource. This resource is a 53 page, 18,000 word guide to the A-Level Film Studies section on Silent Cinema and Buster Keaton as part of the Component 2 aspect of the course. This guide is designed so that it can be printed out and students simply work straight onto it and therefore works brilliantly as a workbook for individual lessons, a whole half-term, for homework, revision, distance learning or for taking the material and turning into other formats such as creating your own PowerPoints. There is so much in this guide that it’s almost impossible to list, but some key aspects include a variety of contextual information and tasks, from work on American silent cinema, the life of Keaton, a look at Soviet montage theory, German expressionism, a detailed analysis of the 4 short films Cops, One Week, The High Sign and The Scarecrow, plus explorations of critical debates and an introduction to expressionism, work on exam questions and much, much more. This will save you not hours of work, but WEEKS worth of work and preparation and I guarantee will be worth the download. Your download includes both an editable Word version AND a high quality PDF, ready for printing or sharing immediately.
FMP - Evaluation WIP
Daniel Morland conducted peer evaluations and interviews to assess his Formula Motorsport Project (FMP). For the video portion, interviewees enjoyed the music video sections but found the main commentary sections lacking. They felt the commentary could have used more context for non-racing fans and suggested shorter commentary segments with more music. For the article, interviewees felt it lacked focus as an article and needed more text. The branding was generally recognized but not always clearly tied to the content. Daniel plans to focus more on visual/music elements and provide better context in future projects based on this feedback.

Examples include social networking sites, blogs, wikis, video sharing sites, and more. Web 2.0 has given the public more access, ownership and power over media by allowing anyone to create and distribute content online.
Web 2.0 2018 Class 4D
Web 2.0 is a term used to describe a second generation of the World Wide Web that emphasizes user-generated content, usability, and interoperability. It allows users to interact and collaborate online by contributing user-created content through social media and virtual communities. Examples of Web 2.0 include social networking sites, blogs, wikis, video sharing sites, and web applications. David Gauntlett suggests that Web 2.0 has impacted access, ownership, power, and creativity by making media production equipment more accessible, giving audiences more control over what and when they consume media, and allowing ordinary people to produce and distribute content and have their voices heard.

Examples of Web 2.0 include social networking sites, blogs, wikis, video sharing sites, and web applications.

It has also made media creation more accessible through smaller and obtainable technologies.
Representation - Dyer
This document outlines Richard Dyer's framework for analyzing representations, which involves considering: 1) What is represented in terms of characters, subject matter, and place? 2) How are social groups represented and what ideologies does this reinforce? 3) Who is responsible for the representations? 4) What meaning might audiences take from the representations? It encourages analyzing representations of age, gender, sexuality, ethnicity and other attributes, and whether they rely on stereotypes or countertypes. It also discusses how representations can legitimize inequality and influence how social groups are seen.
Narrative theory - test your knowledge
This document provides a test on narrative theory concepts. It asks questions about the definition of narrative, Bordwell and Thompson's approach, the difference between the story and plot, types of narrative structures like linear and non-linear, and concepts like ellipsis and action cues that Roland Barthes introduced to analyze how films generate audience interest.
Narrative 2017
The document discusses different approaches to analyzing narratives in films. It distinguishes between plot, which is everything explicitly shown on screen, and story, which also includes events that are implied but not directly shown. Good narrative analysis considers the wider story rather than just the plot. It also discusses how narratives use techniques like restricted perspectives, ambiguity, and enigma codes to engage audiences and leave them with questions about the story.
Q1a Research and Planning
This document provides guidance for exam preparation on the topic of research and planning skills for media production. It begins by listing different areas of skills development that could be asked about, including research and planning. It then focuses on defining and providing examples of research versus planning. Research involves analyzing real media texts, audiences and technical aspects, while planning encompasses developing ideas, storyboarding, scheduling and organizing a production. The document prompts reviewing one's portfolio and production work to evaluate how research and planning skills developed between AS and A2 levels, noting any improvements that allowed for better creative decision making and production quality over time.
Q1a mark scheme
1. This document outlines a marking scheme for a question assessing candidates' ability to summarize their progress and use of digital technology over time.
2. The marking scheme has 4 levels, with level 4 earning 21-25 marks for a clear, fluent, and articulate response using specific examples and excellent terminology. Level 3 earns 16-20 marks for a good response with a clear description and evaluation.
3. Level 2 earns 10-15 marks for a mostly clear response with a narrow range of examples and limited discussion of progress. Level 1 earns 0-9 marks for a descriptive response with little evaluation and partly relevant examples.
Q1a digital technology lesson activities
This document provides guidance for students on developing a skills assessment and essay on digital technology skills. It includes activities for mapping skills, creating a timeline of media productions, and evaluating skill development over time. Students are prompted to consider their current skill level, productions worked on, and key skills learned from each. They are also given guidance on structuring a five paragraph essay responding to an exam question about how their digital technology skills developed and contributed to creative decision making, with examples from their coursework and other productions.

Representation of Sexuality Essay Task
- 1. Write an essay response to the following question: How is a representation of sexuality constructed in the Brothers and Sisters clip through the use of camerawork, mise en scene, editing and sound? https://youtu.be/fNYs3vR-qYg
- 2. How to structure your answer: • Don’t worry about an introduction, just go straight into the scene analysis and work through the clip in chronological order, e.g. start with something like, ‘The clip opens with…’
- 3. How to structure your answer: For an effective analysis, make sure you do the following as you work through each paragraph: • describe the technical aspects – camerawork, mise en scene, editing, sound (denotation) • explain the meanings created (connotations) • discuss the significance of this in relation to the question – i.e. what information does this part of the clip give the audience and how does this relate to sexuality?
- 4. How to structure your answer: To conclude, consider the overall representation of sexuality that has been constructed. To do this you could think about the following: • What type of sexuality is represented? • What version of this sexuality is being represented? E.g. what is suggested about characters of particular sexualities (what they are like, what are their relationships like)? • Are the representations in any way stereotypical or do they offer an alternative? • Do you think the representation is positive or negative?
- 5. • Your analysis should cover at least two sides of A4.
