The task is a total of seven pages and in three parts:
1) Describe your own film based on the five keywords form language, characters, narrative structure, message / sense morality, and character development, and how you / you thought about them. (about 2 pages)
2) Analyze two short films (see below, “Short Films”) based on the course literature, especially chapters 4-8 in Writing Short Films, which will be referenced with page references. What you should mainly analyze is how narrative structures correspond to the films you have chosen, and show which parts of the film correspond to the different components of the models. It is not a given that you can apply narrative structures, it is part of the task to find out if it is possible and argue why or why it does not work. Also discuss the structure of the films more generally. (about 2 pages)
3) Explain what you think are the most important parts of David Bordwell’s discussion of narrative and narration in the text “Three dimensions of film narrative” which is posted on Blackboard. You only need to read up to page 38, and not “Afterwords”. Use page references when referring to the text. (about 3 pages)
There are links to articles (see below, “Narrative links”) about narration and structure in addition to Bordwell’s article that can be helpful and which you are welcome to refer to. You can also use Bordwell’s text in the short film analyzes. Do not forget the source list.
