These papers must be approximately 1000 words (not counting the works cited section). Please include a word count at the end of the paper (before the works cited) and double space your paper. Use a 12 point font. Review the essay checklist as well. You must use the MLA format for research papers (correct format for quotations, works cited, parenthetical references with page numbers, etc.) and adhere to Canadian standards for grammar and spe
lling (e.g. ?colour? unless you are quoting the word). Make sure to list the films in your works cited and your textbook
Textbook: Giannetti, Louis, and Jim Leach. Understanding Movies, Fifth Canadian Edition. Toronto: Pearson Education, 2011.
(if you paraphrase or quote content)
Scholarly secondary sources or research sources
(in addition to any possible references to your textbook)
You must use at least one quotation from a scholarly journal article (select peer reviewed when you do your database search), book chapter or book in your paper. (You may use more but the focus should be on your analysis, not on the secondary sources so try to restrict yourself to no more than two scholarly/peer reviewed sources). Secondary material is material written about either the films or the techniques used to make the films. You must include a quotation that is not in the class textbook (You may still cite from the textbook but this will not count as your research source). The UNBC library has several databases with full text, peer-reviewed journal articles about film techniques or specific films but you may also use scholarly book length studies about film (that are not textbooks. ). Avoid citing book reviews.
ESSAY TOPICS
1. Because films are ?motion? pictures, movement is a key feature of this art form. Using concepts from Chapter 5 in your textbook (Giannetti, Louis, and Jim Leach. Understanding Movies, Fifth Canadian Edition. Toronto: Pearson Education, 2011. )
, compare and contrast various kinds of movement in two of the films listed in this year’s course syllabus.
Comparisons/contrast
When you compare/contrast films or concepts, you will consider similarities and differences in the two films. You need to make explicit parallels and distinctions between the works. For example, if you discuss music in one film and then begin discussing the second film, you need to indicate how film 2 has some parallels with film 1, but then you may decide that the distinctions/differences outweigh the few similarities. Remember to say how film 2 is different. Do not just say you intend to explore differences and then expect your reader to figure it out on her own.
