Presentation Documents

Below are the documents that your presentations are to be based on.

Remember, once your A4 handouts are completed you will need to have 18 copies for the lesson. Come and see me BEFORE the lesson (Tuesday afternoon or Thursday before school) to copy them for you if you can't get it done any other way.

Year 12 Presentation Task

The History of Western Cinema

As a class, we will help to ensure that everyone in the class has a rounded knowledge of the history of Western cinema from its beginnings to some of its modern developments.

Topics covered will be:

·         Film: How it all started

·         The Early Days of Film

·         Sound and the Studio System

·         ‘Scandals, Undershirts and the Depression’

·         The End of the Studio System

·         ‘Indies’ and Film Ratings

·         Appealing to the Box Office

TASK: Working in groups of twos or threes you will have one of the topics to cover. You will be given a rather uninspiring looking pack of notes and it is your job to summarise the information, locate the most important and interesting pieces and turn them into a fabulous presentation.

How you present the information is up to you but you will need to have following:

·         A PowerPoint display to support your presentation
·         Movie clips – usually hyperlinked from YouTube or similar
·         A one page handout that summarises the information from your presentation
·         And everyone must have a speaking part in the presentation

Presentations will be given on Thursday 27th September in our Period 4 lesson in G9.

Yes, I am checking up on whether you're looking at the blog - the state of the collage homeworks would suggest that very few of you are!
