transcript.
After reviewing the discussion of genre in
Chapter 4 of Film: From Watching
to seeing, demonstrate your understanding of one selected genre using a
feature-length film.
Note: Several films are listed in Chapter 4 as
emblematic of a specific genre. You are allowed to choose a film or genre
not mentioned in Chapter 4, but you are strongly encouraged to email your
professor to receive approval before doing so.
In 800 to 1200 words
·
Explain genre theory
and, using Chapter 4 of the text as a reference, thoroughly describe the
conventions and attributes of your selected genre.
·
Identify a
feature-length film that fits this genre and provide a basic summary of the
movie. As you develop this summary, remember the differences between a film’s
story and a film’s plot and how these differences can lead to the inclusion of
genre elements.
·
Interpret at least two
genre conventions exhibited in your chosen feature-length film that help
classify it in the selected genre. Be sure to provide a specific example of
each convention (e.g., a particular scene or plot component).
·
Provide an example of
a third convention from your chosen feature-length film and explain how this
convention expands the boundaries of the specified genre.
Your paper should be organized around a thesis
statement that focuses on how your chosen feature-length film both aligns with
and expands upon your chosen genre. Review the Week Two sample paper, which provides an example of a
well-developed analysis as well as insight on composition.
The paper must be 800 to 1200 words in length (excluding title
and reference pages), and formatted according to APA style as outlined in
the Ashford Writing Center.
You must use at least two
scholarly sources other than the textbook to support your claims. Refer to
the ENG225
Research Guide in the Ashford University Library for guidance and to locate your
sources. Cite your sources (including the feature-length film) within the text
of your paper and on the reference page. For information regarding APA,
including samples and tutorials, visit the Ashford Writing Center.
