Year 12 Film Studies Storyboard Coursework - Practical Application of Learning

BRIEF


Creative Project: aims & context, film sequence or short film and reflective analysis (50 marks)

Candidates are required to create a storyboard for a film sequence that demonstrates how the micro features of film construct meaning. This comprises three elements:

(i)             Aims and context

A clarification of the aims and context of the sequence or short film to be completed on the appropriate cover sheet.
Please note: the 'Aims and Context' must be completed on the appropriate cover sheet, otherwise the Creative Project and accompanying Reflective Analysis cannot be adequately assessed.

(ii)           Film Sequence or Short Film

The film sequence may either be an extract from longer film or a complete short film, with the emphasis on visual communication rather than on dialogue.
• It will take the form of a photographed (digital or photo-chemical) storyboard of between 10 and 25 different shots (some of which may be repeated) plus up to 5 found shots (shots which would be difficult to photograph or where locations need to be established).            The 5 found shots must be acknowledged.

(iii)          Reflective analysis approximately 750 words or equivalent (10 marks)


The reflective analysis should select key micro features of the sequence and demonstrate how they make meaning(s) and aim to provoke response(s) in audiences.            Candidates working in a group should focus on the construction and impact of their chosen micro aspect.
The analysis will be presented as a continuous piece of writing, with or without illustrative material.
