Evaluative Analysis Essay - Independent learning

Deadline Monday :)
Principal's Guidance HERE

Independent study task: Complete the introduction of your Evaluative Analysis Essay 

Structuring the Evaluative Analysis
The Evaluative Analysis must include the following elements (and indeed this offers a reasonable template for structuring it with approximately 600 words dedicated to each, taking into account the introduction).

Introduction
The evaluations should include an introduction, like any other long-form essay. This should include:

• the brief chosen (see below)
• a short synopsis of the film
• the medium chosen (film/screenplay) and 
• some brief aims – it is IMPOSSIBLE to evaluate the success of the production WITHOUT any measurable aims.

Sample aims may include:

Intended audience response:

• ‘To create empathy with my main character’
• ’To have the audience on the edge of their seat’

Genre/Style goals:

• ‘To create a highly visual Film Noir’
• ‘To create an aesthetic similar to my research film X’
• ‘To subvert the conventions of gender within the Sci-Fi by developing a strong female character within my script’

Feel free to continue using the guidance, linked above to structure your response. 

Your screenplay must include ONE of the following briefs:

• a narrative twist
• a narrative which begins with an enigma
• a narrative which establishes and develops a single character
• a narrative which portrays a conflict between two central characters.
