This resource begins by drawing a comparison to analysing a film trailer - first of all, you will look at a spooky trailer and then comment on the transitions, the fades etc. and discuss how it creates a spooky effect.
The lesson works well if you really engage the students and get them talking about the effect of the transitions, fades, spooky sounds. Following that, a similar link can be drawn to the attached text. Students think about the way they are guided through the text in the same way they thought about the film trailer. I found it really effective. A number of my students who didn't get question 3 said this really made it click for them!
Following on from this, you will look at the attached resource and comment on how the changes of focus give a particular effect.
This went down incredibly well with my year 11s and helped them to finally understand the requirements of the question!
