We start with a brief familiarization with some theoretical frameworks (Roland Barthes - Mythologies, semiotics, The Death of The Author; Stuart Hall - reception theory and preferred, negotiated and oppositional readings; Todorov and narrative - equilibrium, disequilibrium and equilibrium; and finally Laura Mulvey and the 'male gaze' of the camera).
We continue to the short film genre and enjoy a screening of two Claremont short films Checkout and Gotcha from this year, starting with the film posters that publicize them, noting the forms and conventions.
Then using the website Short of the Week we watch two short films Next Door and High Maintenance.
PREP Create your A2 blog and start with an analysis of the two short films. Each post is entitled RESEARCH followed by the name of the film.
You made be interested in the practical brief on TRAILERS. In this case, analyse two trailers instead.
