Requirements of project

You are going to carry out a small-scale research project, based on ONE focus film, making appropriate references to at least two other relevant films. You should relate your chosen focus film to any one of the following contexts:

-star/performer

- genre

-technology

-social, historical and/or political context

- institution

- auteur in its broadest sense.



The project will be submitted in three parts:
1) An annotated catalogue of 10 to 15 items selected from your total research. Each catalogue item should be appropriately referenced and be accompanied by a brief note (around 5 lines) to explain the relevance of the item to the research. The catalogue will conclude with a brief paragraph which identifies significant items (e.g. between 3 and 5) not included in catalogue, offering rasons why.
2) A presentation script (around 1000-1500 words) in the form of notes for a presentation. This is not an essay but a presentation of research findings.
3) An evaluation of the research project (approx 500 words.)

IMPORTANT: You may not choose as a focus film either a film selected in your FS1 written analyses (macro or micro) or one which is identified as a focus or close study in FS3 or FS5.
