Everything you need for the Film Worksheet is in the worksheet, itself, but here is additional information:
The Film Worksheet assignment is similar to the Art Worksheet, except that you will have more to keep track of -- sound effects, moving images, and a plot with characters. I recommend looking over the film worksheet before you go to the theater and make notes afterward. You will be surprised at how much you remember.
SELECTING A FILM
When you select a film to see, you will find that the Internet has some helpful websites that list all films in American theaters, along with their reviews and cast credits. This semester I'm providing you with links to a few of these websites, instead of a list of specific titles. So, your job is to carefully pick a film to see.
Look for films that you think have enough of a plot and technical aspects to write about in a balanced discussion of the strengths and weaknesses of the film. Chances are the films that interest you, because you know something about the topic, will be films you can write about intelligently.
Here are a few of the websites the websites:
