This lesson resource introduces pupils to Leitmotifs, and how they can be used to deepen our connection with characters, places, things, or ideas within a film. It also explores how manipulation of musical elements changes our perception of a character or mood, even when using the same Leitmotif. With a number of embedded musical examples, this resource is designed to expose pupils to a wide range of genres.
This Film Music resource comes with two built-in task and a double-sided worksheet, and all files come in editable formats so that you can adjust the lesson to suit your pupils. It also includes PDF files in case of formatting issues.
This resource is perfect for KS3 pupils just starting out on their musical journey, or for KS4 pupils as an introduction to the Film Music Set Works at GCSE in all major exam boards.
You could use this Film Music resource as a supplement lesson in your own Scheme of Work, or buy it as part of the HiggsTeach Film Music Bundle, which comes with a full Scheme of Work as well as Bonus material to push your highest ability pupils even further with their composition.
I hope you and your pupils enjoy this resource!
