This contains two PPTS revised as at February 2023 - one is a general revision to compare and contrast the set texts from Mars and Beyonce and the second PPT is a an in depth refresher on Mars uptown funk
Neither need teacher support - but if teacher led would take 2-3 lessons to work through
There are some exam style questions - with guidance on ’ get to the point’ style answers, stongly focussed on there are no points in waffle!
There are slides with core vocab refreshers.
This is a student workbook which allows them to view and make notes and explore in depth the ‘britishness’ of the film
The work would/should occupy about 8-10 lessons
I print it single sided and encourage them to build on the reverse pages there on own ideas and story boards so it become a solid revision tool for them
This is workbook for Winters Bone suitable for Eduqas A Level new curriculum 2018+
addition to resource revision also for AS exams 2023
addition to resourcce revision PPT Feb 2021
This approximately 32+ pages - it is best used by being printed in colour.
It has quite a bit of technical teaching for film - eg 3pt lighting, camera shot, costume. It is assumed that this film might be at the beginning of teaching A Level film and therfore introduces more techinical language.
However, the prupose is to teach spectatorship and the work book is geared towards the Eduqas ( WJEC) a level
A condition of purchase of thi resource is that it will not be shared on-line. It is supplied in word foramt so that you can personalise it.
UPDATED 20 AUGUST 2020
This is work book intended for A Level students ( film study) using the current curriculum for Eduqas (WJEC) board with the first exams 2019.
( I think it is impossible to teach spectatorship witihout acknowledging casting choices in light of#blacklives matter and the wake of #metoo)
Update includes an extra page towards the end on more sound information
The resource focuses on Spectatorship, but assumes that some spectatorship has already been taught. As this film has attaracted over 50!! PHD thesis - I have got this down to what I think is a manageable 25 pages ( just under 6,500 words) with some student interaction, but all the interaction comes back to what will be the key question focus for the 2019 - 2021 exams with this film - spectatorship.
The key scenes I have targeted are the coin toss, and the motel scene post Moss death, with sections on camera, lighting, costumes, and of course the Coen’s and Deakin.
There are many themes one could chose - I have included Nihilism, religion , ageing, law and order, as they seem the most obvious and will I hope write up well in the exams. I have not done much focus on the acting because I have assumed that any teacher would easily identify that its realism, and method with the main three!
I have left this as a word document - so you can alter adapt and personalise as you wish - or not if you choose - but I do ask that you do not distrubute this online.
This is for students studying THE BIG ISSUE [TBI]
It includes references to the Sgt Pepper cover used in the 2021 November exam series.
PPTs cover TBI going digital and the impact of covid
Issue practise with Marcus Rushford
Digital impact and key word practise: bricolage homage
Theorist used Clay Shirkey
This is a work book for Film studies - as the film has a high restricted rating, it is assumed this film is done in a Year 13 class after a year of film study - so this DOES NOT go over film language as it is assumed students have already been taught basics.
The workbook is structured to explore auteur: Tarantino as the Director and, as Music sound track auteur which has become his trademark. It looks at trademark shots such as the trunk shot - the elliptical narrative, the role of discombobulated dialogue, the casting
The work book could be use as part of a remote learning scheme, but would be better suited to explicit guided viewing. The role of how differently audiences react, hyper reality, binary theory is covered in questions students should respond to.
