Of course, don't be afraid of touching upon subjects like sexuality within film or any other meaning you see within them, but if you are going to, there's probably ways that you can link discussion of the visuals or sound design with them. <br /><br />For instance, There's a film you'll end up watching this year that's rife with psychosexual motifs and phallic shaped objects - a detail like this allows you to talk about the visual aspects and what meaning they convey. <br /><br />Either way, get stuck in with the discussion, it'll get clearer as you go on. And remember, if you feel at all stumped with this stuff then don't forget that you can still look at other reviews for inspiration.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02328831388845799315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2306188460444233314.post-59042275611944573492016-10-17T09:43:54.235-07:002016-10-17T09:43:54.235-07:00right so focus more on the visual aspect of the fi...right so focus more on the visual aspect of the films we review, ok i'll change my focus.David Greenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05880551985802632476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2306188460444233314.post-26767512988337350772016-10-17T07:31:01.082-07:002016-10-17T07:31:01.082-07:00Hi David,

You are also asked to support your discussion with 3 quotes, don't forget...<br />Have another look at the reference guide and the examples of previous students' reviews that Phil posted here - your bibliography needs a bit of love and attention! <br />http://ucarochester-cgartsandanimation.blogspot.co.uk/2016/09/fao-caa-yr-1-invisible-cities-2016_17.htmlJackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13332181835614441447noreply@blogger.com
