KS 3 Year 9 Age 13
FILM LANGUAGE
For year 7 pupils the key concerns
of Film Language centre on issues
of how a narrative story is structured
and how images and sounds work
together. Hence, your classwork
would be concerned with discussing
a fi lm in terms of music, location,
interior and exterior settings and the
role of actors and performance.
Film Language focuses on the
differences between fi lm, video
and television and allows scope for
comparative study. Furthermore, how
meaning is constructed through the
editing of image and sound. Identifying
major media styles and narrative
forms is also central as is the ways in
which style relates to technology.
Film Language looks at how fi lm, TV and
video styles and narrative forms can relate to
authors, the production context and the social
and cultural context.
PRODUCERS AND
AUDIENCES
Explore the importance of genre to
our understanding of fi lms. There is
also a consideration of the intended
audience of a fi lm text and how
differing audiences bring differing
responses to a given fi lm text.
The key concern here is with the
relationship between understanding
the demands of pre production,
production, post production and
exhibition and how these issues
relate to matters of creation,
infl uence, intent and response to a
fi lm.
Producers and Audiences there is the aim
to describe and explain how authors, genres
and stars generate meaning. Pupils are also
encouraged to identify and describe some of
the ways in which fi lm, video and television
institutions relate to social, cultural and
political contexts. Pupils will also need to
relate distribution, exhibition and audience.
MESSAGES AND
VALUES
Messages and Values concerns
the class with being able to identify
the level of realism to which a fi lm
aims and where the line between
the real and the fantastic can be
drawn. This is a particular area of
interest in terms of animation.
Messages and Values of a fi lm
are considered in terms of how
social groups, events and ideas
are represented. Pupils are also
encouraged to explain and justify
judgements and personal responses
and argue for alternative ways of
representing a group event or idea.
Pupils are also encouraged to
discuss and evaluate texts with strong
social or ideological messages.
The focus is on discussing the ideological
messages in mainstream texts. Pupils must
also describe and analyse different levels
of realism on offer (visual and emotional
realism–the choices a character makes and
their reaction to events). Finally, pupils should
engage with explaining the relationship
between aesthetic style and social and
political meaning.
