Film language: Sound presentations and homework

This is always a great lesson - seeing your parallel and contrapuntal sound presentations. When they are done, we'll watch the last two clips analysing sound then you'll need to complete the following tasks on your blog:

Presentation feedback/learner response

• Upload your presentation/collages along with a YouTube/Soundcloud link to the music you chose. Remember to embed your presentation in your blog post using Google Slides (you must upload it to Google Drive first).
• Type up your feedback and then reflect on your work. Add three WWWs and three EBIs underneath the feedback I've given you.
• Learner response: compare your presentation against your evaluation of the top three presentations in the class. Who did you think was best and why?

Sound task

Find a film clip on YouTube that uses sound in an interesting way. Analyse the use of sound, making sure you use the key language we have learned about sound in film:

• Diegetic and non-diegetic sound
• Parallel and contrapuntal sound
• Sound bridges

Remember to discuss/analyse all the different types of sound present in the clip:

• Music
• Dialogue
• Voiceover
• Sound effects

You also need to highlight or put in bold any use of media language.

Complete for homework - due next week.
