Utilizing Documentary Films & Interviews #1 Assignment

Assignment: Annotating Sources For this assignment, use the Fletcher Library to locate 2 academic articles on your genre or a film from your genre. Then, follow the wikiHow: How to Annotate an Article (Links to an external site.)for both articles. Which suggested method you use--hand annotation vs electronic--will determine your submission method to this forum. Assignment: Utilizing Documentary Films & Interviews #1 For this assignment, you'll need to find a documentary film on your genre. If you've narrowed your focus to a subgenre (example: slapstick comedy) and cannot find a doc specifically on that subgenre, you can expand your search to the broader genre (comedy). *To be clear, this documentary should discuss your genre/subgenre broadly, not just a particular aspect of the genre/subgenre. Some examples of documentaries about movies: Bringing Darkness into Light (documentary on the subgenre film noir) The Celluloid Closet (documentary on representation of LGBTQ+ in cinema) The Spaghetti West (documentary on the subgenre of Italian westerns) Nightmares in Red, White and Blue: The Evolution of the American Horror Film American Grindhouse (documentary on subgenre) After watching the documentary and taking notes, write a minimum of 500 words summarizing this source. This can be in the form of an outline or using headings & subheadings, but write in complete sentences. Assignment: Utilizing Documentary Films & Interviews #2 For this assignment, you'll need to find a video source about a specific aspect of your chosen genre. This can be a focus on a director (including interviews), a technical aspect of a film (such as special effects), music in film, etc. This can include behind-the-scenes videos on the making of a movie. *To be clear, this documentary should focus on a particular aspect of the genre/subgenre. An example is Ray Harryhausen: Special Effects Titan, a documentary featuring the work of stop- motion camera and special effects guru Ray Harryhausen. Including clips from Jason and the Argonauts and contributions from Peter Jackson, Nick Park, Phil Tippet, Peter Lord, Terry Gilliam, Dennis Muren, Rick Baker, John Landis, Ken Ralston, Guillermo Del Toro, Jean-Pierre Jeunet, Robert Zemeckis, James Cameron and Steven Spielberg. After watching the documentary and taking notes, write a minimum of 500 words summarizing this source.
