Week 10 Term 3

This week we will commence a film unit where we will revise and extend the film knowledge you have gained since Year 7.  If you intend to study in Years 11 & 12 this will be important preparation for you.  Tasks for this week:

Revision

1. Create a new page on your Weebly titled 'Film'
2. Insert the mind map below on this page.
3. Choose 10 terms from the mind map and below it make a list of your own definitions of these terms.

Genre

1. View a range of movie trailers as a class group and participate in discussion about what genre/s they belong to and the conventions used to indicate that genre.
2. Create a sub-page called 'Film Genre'
3. Select a movie trailer of your own choosing and embed it on this new page.  Below the video list the genre/s and the features used by the filmmaker from that genre.  (Record your answer in point form.)

Weeks 4-10

During this time we will revise the TEXT TYPES that you are likely to encounter in your Trial School Certificate.  You will be issued with a booklet containing features of these texts and activities to prepare you.

Importantly, you need to RESPOND TO (answer questions about) and COMPOSE (write) in these forms.

You are also encouraged to visit the Board of Studies website and practise using their online multiple choice questions.
