Learning Visual Literary techniques - moving on from CPE/newspaper film analysis to a more academic approach.
Analysing for form - moving away from an analysis of narrative, we looked at how analysing a film still from its technical presentation and then applying an analytical approach to this technical interpretation one can achieve insight into the movie, without knowing more about its narrative as such, much as close reading of the text offers the same insight into the life, times and challenges the author faced.
Students presented Timothy Corrigan chapter "Six Approaches to Film Analysis" - text available in manual.
This work was all in preparation for the students' submission of their review of Gaslight on Monday 24th October.
