Kia Ora, Exam prep PPT added 2024 UK series updarted Janu 2024! too with three new PPTS including one which gives a short but important factual details about NZ/ being Maori and Jewish which is Waititi’s background! One linking gender and humour in the film there is also and update from June 2023 - added a sentence starter PPT for exam revision post the Summer 2023 UK exam series this resource has been re-written for the new eduqas film studies GCSE set texts global - and I am excited! I lobbied for this film to be considered so YAY! The workbook has been updated [ april 2022] and has a detachable back page if you want to avoid the spoiler of Rosa. It’s 22 pages and will form an teaching and revision guide The workbook takes the students through the who what and why - and with the PPTS should get them ready to answer some questions as well as provide a solid introduction to the satire of the film, the context and filming. There are three PPTs ** see uodates now 5+ - the longest is aimed at film, but can work with an English subject eg the NZ curriculm and will fit into an extended media study of film The two worksheets are to support film viewing for any of the subjects as the teacher can select the emphasis The longer PPT has a research task, an end of module essay. Youtube markers are current as at 27/09/2020 I anticipate adding to this so please check in for updates after the UK summer 2024 exams - although this film will not be examined until 2024 by eduqas. I will be uploading more questions in August 2024

Promising Young Women A Level film study plus workbook

(1)
This is constructed for examination purposed for the UK exam boards for A Level UPDATED April 7 2024 workbook - in word doc New addition June 2024: theory of trauma and idealogy [ Addition : making a link to the politics of pretty I have added a PPT which reflects students reading around the subject and idealogy - it has a quite difficult essay task but my students enjoyed it as some had read ’ women dont owe you pretty’ ] The workbook has been updated as I continue teaching this, with real world student input. I have dipped more into ideology- gender, misogyny, continued looking at the aesthetics of cuteness, and how spectator is constructed . There is a newer section on the ‘femme fatale’ PPT1 It is a focused on how meaning is made, spectatorship and ideology and the context [67 slides0 PPT 2 is focused on the ideology of being cute and #toxicmasculinty PPT 3 looks at some of the failures in the film - it’s a discussion prompt with several examples including the look alike to Bridget Bardot homage PPT1 suggests viewing broken down to 3 sessions - and has short and long writing task and some discussion breaks. It also has a selection of film shots for students to explore as well in depth of how meaning is made through soundtrack, costume, context and milennial ideas of feminism - however teachers can adapt to how they teach film /length of lessons With 67 slides - there is enough for about 10-12 one hour lessons [It does not teach basics of film, because no one teaching this, is likely be using it as their first text and cinematography basics would have been taught already! ] PPT1 has some useful links - which at January 2024 are active - and a short teaching rationale for teachers Please note I always charge very little for resources which takes hours to put together and therefore, respectfully ask you do not put my work online as your product :)

Pans Labyrinth del Torro film PPTS and workbook

(0)
PPTS, work book and essay template I have been teaching Pans Lab., since 2008 and there are heap of resources out there: this is suitable for IB or A Level - I have used fo both. It is MY take on how to teach it, over 20 hours including film viewing. Th resources require teacher guidance, except the one PPT of pre viewing - this is my curated guide for students to work through by themselves before any teaching/viewing of the film! I have updated it October 2021 - if there are broken links please let me know! The remaining PPTS - are for one guided teaching and vewing, one for cinematography, and one for revision pre exam - so four in total. The work book is word doc and editable: and the word template doc is for PETAL structure paragraphs to build a structured essay for film. Do check back as I am compiling a resource PPT - eg magazines and exam questions - I have the 2021 UK Autumn papers and will be paraphrasing from and you can down load that when it is available!

Hamlet Revision Act 1

Whilst this targets A Level OCR it can be used for any board for revision: the PPT takes students through the basics of ACT 1, what really is the absolute minimum of expectation of knowledge [ teaching!] It could be used as an online self paced module - it does have writing tasks and esssay question - a student could use this if they are concerned they need more than they have been taught, in progresive linear format

A few exam series in, I have added a short PPT based on how my students wrote about Formation and scored overall near 100% on MV questions - they were pushing for links that were out of the ‘box’ and drilling down on ‘media’ the artist and the poltics of Music |Videos per se- Hope it helps Contains 4 PPTS 1] This is a 90 slide PPT introducing formation: This is a teacher led PPT and covers: Beyonce’s connection to the Black Panthers New Orleans Bounce culture Relevance of Hurricane Katrina and the aftermath Connections to Slavery Awards The Superbowl release Oblique references to policing and #BLM Costume/Mise en scene/ framing Of the 90 slides about 12 are selections from the Music Video which focus on key moments suitable for evidence for writing task evidence - there are so many frames to choose from - what is included in this 90 PPT is A selection This PPT is in a sense a generic unit - you may for example want to use the 2] DO NOW PPT which is a separate PPT at various stages interspersed in the main PPT I have assumed there is a general knowledge about cinematic terms and that is NOT included 3] PPT close analysis of 6 frames - this demonstrates to students how to use media language in dissecting frames each frame should have further analysis done by students - based on ‘I model, you know do’ 4] PPT 4 is short extension PPT on mediated histroical stereotypes of Black women

Knowledge Organiser [5] The Taming of the Shrew Shakespeare

(0)
This is a series of 5 knowledge organisers which build sequentially from each other introducing the form of the play, acts, context and moving onto the complicated ideas about how/if this is a comedy. The 5th organiser focuses on Kates Act 5 speech and 3 of the organisers have prompt essay questions. I have also attached a teacher viewing sheet of online video verision which had working links checked in August 2022 - obviously these can change I also attach a copy of the 2012 Guardian review which is a helpful tool for classroom discussions.
Pulp Fiction student work book

Pulp Fiction student work book

(0)
This is a work book for Film studies - as the film has a high restricted rating, it is assumed this film is done in a Year 13 class after a year of film study - so this DOES NOT go over film language as it is assumed students have already been taught basics. The workbook is structured to explore auteur: Tarantino as the Director and, as Music sound track auteur which has become his trademark. It looks at trademark shots such as the trunk shot - the elliptical narrative, the role of discombobulated dialogue, the casting The work book could be use as part of a remote learning scheme, but would be better suited to explicit guided viewing. The role of how differently audiences react, hyper reality, binary theory is covered in questions students should respond to.

This is a workbook created for the Eduqas board current course ( first exam June 2019) This has been updated again September 2021 - with an extra 30 slide PPT reviewing context, the Hays Code, the tension between Old hollywood and Wilder’s vision, images of colour stills versus the back and white Updated 2020 and added quick fire PPTs - great for revision! It covers the broad range of ideas with the film: context, history, aesthetics, auteur, cinematography, male gaze, gender bender. It has a suggested main essay question, short work tasks, and various stills from the film It is not per se a viewing log, but should be used before during and after viewing.

Exit Through the Gift Shop Banksy

(0)
This is a first run 30 PPT introduction to the film/documentary and 3 further PPTS - connecting F is For Fake Orson Welles to Exit, one asking Who is Banksy and one asking who is Guetta All have some essay questions to encourage students to think more deelpy about the complexity of fake versus fictions, authenticity, art and art fraud, and the role of graffiti It assumes it will be teacher led and the main PPT is approximately 1/2 before and 1/2 post viewing I introduce ideas about authenticity, cinema verite, voice over narration, and there is a slide in which the I list the sequences - this would be best printed for students! There are writing ideas and discussion points I have assumed students have a knowledge of the language of film and therefore the deep dives are limited to what is more unique to the documentary This should cover somewhere between 3-5 lessons excluding viewing

Blinded by the Light Chadra Film Study

(0)
FILM STUDY This is a set of 10 PPTS as the introduction from first to second viewing of the film. I have assumed that the teacher leading this knows how to teach film and has reviewed the film! The PPTS use stills, and questions to prompt students to securely locate the Britishness in this film using cinematic evidence It is not however, an introduction to cinematic terms so I have assumed basics have been taught eg lighting props costume It has only a few youtube links which are all working at the time of upload This does dig into the context of era so has some challenging ideas about the Thatcher era, racism and as such students should continue to be trigger warned - a heading from the Times used is genuine, sadly.

Sun goes Down OCR Lil Nas X

(0)
This is targetting OCR media A Level music video [ MV} The links are current at March 2024 - but you will need to update the MV set text SUN GOES DOWN from youtube yourself - the offical version is the one referred to As a point of comparision The old town road is suggested: to understand a bit more about the artist The resouce introduces shot/camera/costume exploration, and detailed lyric exploration while reflecting on the artists role in hip hop and as part of the LGBTI community and conflicts with hegemony. It does contain a bad language warning - and a reminder that this MV does refer to thoughts of suicide. OCR chose it - not me !!! This PPT spreads over 4-5 lessons - with writing tasks ege 4 - 5 hours -

This is a student workbook which allows them to view and make notes and explore in depth the ‘britishness’ of the film The work would/should occupy about 8-10 lessons I print it single sided and encourage them to build on the reverse pages there on own ideas and story boards so it become a solid revision tool for them

AQA Crime poems KS5 Wilde Crabbe Browning

(0)
The poems are for AQA Crime They are for teachers who know how to teach poetry at KS5 and they are sectioned to work through in an order building knowledge Browning then Wilde than Crabbe These PPTS do NOT focus on low level line by line analysis but link to higher order thought - deep links to the AO’s : if students do not write to the AOs they get lower marks. Teachers are advised to review these - this is not self paced work, not suitable to post as work from home - more suitable for students who want and work towards A* A B or a higher C

This is for students to revise expectations for Component 1. It reviews the marks awarded, the timings and the gritty specifics to Comp 1. This resource is only suitable for use with teacher guidance and is only accurate to GCSE after the Summer GCSE 2018. It is quite prescriptive with timings, and working smart with the question marks and Section B. It is an A3 format. Hope it helps.

(0)
This is workbook for Winters Bone suitable for Eduqas A Level new curriculum 2018+ addition to resource revision also for AS exams 2023 addition to resourcce revision PPT Feb 2021 This approximately 32+ pages - it is best used by being printed in colour. It has quite a bit of technical teaching for film - eg 3pt lighting, camera shot, costume. It is assumed that this film might be at the beginning of teaching A Level film and therfore introduces more techinical language. However, the prupose is to teach spectatorship and the work book is geared towards the Eduqas ( WJEC) a level A condition of purchase of thi resource is that it will not be shared on-line. It is supplied in word foramt so that you can personalise it.
No Country For Old  Men  Film Study  new curriculum updated

No Country For Old Men Film Study new curriculum updated

(1)
UPDATED 20 AUGUST 2020 This is work book intended for A Level students ( film study) using the current curriculum for Eduqas (WJEC) board with the first exams 2019. ( I think it is impossible to teach spectatorship witihout acknowledging casting choices in light of#blacklives matter and the wake of #metoo) Update includes an extra page towards the end on more sound information The resource focuses on Spectatorship, but assumes that some spectatorship has already been taught. As this film has attaracted over 50!! PHD thesis - I have got this down to what I think is a manageable 25 pages ( just under 6,500 words) with some student interaction, but all the interaction comes back to what will be the key question focus for the 2019 - 2021 exams with this film - spectatorship. The key scenes I have targeted are the coin toss, and the motel scene post Moss death, with sections on camera, lighting, costumes, and of course the Coen’s and Deakin. There are many themes one could chose - I have included Nihilism, religion , ageing, law and order, as they seem the most obvious and will I hope write up well in the exams. I have not done much focus on the acting because I have assumed that any teacher would easily identify that its realism, and method with the main three! I have left this as a word document - so you can alter adapt and personalise as you wish - or not if you choose - but I do ask that you do not distrubute this online.

AQA - Poetry Power and Conflict last prep 2024

(0)
This is a teacher led - or student led work through on what is likely to be , or not be the central poem in the Summer 2024 series It also has a short refresher on Garland and Weir, as female poets, not yet chosen as central poems, and I am NOT suggesting they will as my crystal ball is quite cloudy on this But it does help the students reduce the selection of poems to 10 more likely candidates and help them chose from those not likely under the rules to be used again, to prepare. Looking back, so many thought My Last Duchess was too long, not tiered etc, and how wrong was that? This PPT merely reviews the maths - and with Poppies and Kamikaze - how to use very short quotes - dip into the language features. It is not an exhaustive resource - more a filler last push or homework revision
