Film Study - Basic Shot/Scene Analysis Templates and Examples

Study a film as literature with these templates to help students analyse the use of a technique in a shot or scene from your class movie. 
 
Note well:  This resource is also available in our discounted bundle here!
 
Templates 1 and 2:
Use the examples to guide students through completing one of two blank template options to extend their thinking around:
How another technique works with the one they're focusing on.
The effects of the technique as it's used in the shot/scene.
Wider world suggestions.
Director's purpose.
Finally, students use the notes from their template to write a well-developed paragraph.
 
Template 3:
Students/you place a shot (which may also represent a short scene) in the middle of a template. Students then complete as many of the surrounding boxes as they can to annotate the shot/scene.  Each box is headed with a different film technique - eg: Shot sizes, camera angles, colour, sound, editing...
Finally, students use the notes from their template to write a well-developed paragraph.
