Learning Objectives:

Properly sequence a series of events

Determine how connected events contribute to the totality of a material viewed
Learning Inputs:
Films are similar to novels or short stories in that they tell a story. The methods you
use to analyze a film are closely related to those used to analyze literature. Here are the
elements to be considered when analyzing films: film facts, genre, setting, plot and
structure, conflict, characterization, narrator and point of view, imagery, theme, and
cinematic effects such as soundtrack, use of the camera, lighting, and editing.

examples used to support your opinion.

the setting, and give a sense of the central conflict or point of the movie.
3. Analysis and Evaluation. In this section you analyze or critique the movie. Write about
your own opinions; just be sure that you explain and support them with examples. Some
questions you might want to consider:
- How did the director achieve his or her purpose?
- How did the elements of the movie (camera techniques, angles, sound, etc.)
contribute to the totality of the work?
- Is the acting / writing / music effective, powerful, difficult, beautiful?
- What are the strengths and weaknesses the movie?
- What is your overall response to the movie? Did you find it interesting, moving,
dull? Why?
- Would you recommend it to others? Why or why not?
4. Conclusion. Briefly conclude the review by pulling your thoughts together. You may
want to say what impression the movie left you with or emphasize what you want your
reader to know about it. Be sure to include a grade, A-F, in your review with a recap of
why it earned that grade.

read, heard, or viewed. Compelling insight statements should be structured around five
key principles, as follows:
1. Setting the context by explaining the background of your insight.
2. Communicating the dilemma by showing your understanding of the barriers that
people may have in achieving what they want in life.
3. Articulating the why by focusing on the possible reasons why something is
happening.
4. Capturing the motivation by dealing with the frustration that surrounds any given
experience as this would show the core motivating factors.
5. Envisioning the ideal by conveying how one would like the world to look and feel,
and what the ideal experience should be.
