3 more shorts

Boy and Bicycle

Boy and Bicycle...directed by Ridley Scott and featuring his late brother Tony. This was filmed whilst Ridley was still a student, so it's quite interesting to see this in light of what he has achieved since.

Again, this was selected for the Cinema 16 British Shorts DVD

Who's My Favourite Girl

Another British Short available on Cinema 16 British Shorts DVD.

Je t'aime John Wayne

A short film that pays homage to French New Wave cinema. Available on the Cinema 16 British Shorts DVD. Also it might be useful for the film studies work you are doing with John.

Short Film Information

A good document that discusses and explores contemporary short films.

Please read as it makes some good points and is usable for your own research/planning etc...

Also if you've not seen Paperman (Disney, 2012) here's a link so that you can watch it...well worth a look.

Group Presentation - Short Film Textual Analysis

In groups of 2 or 3, not four (as stated in the worksheet), "prepare presentations on the textual analysis of a short film of your own choosing. The presentation will commence with an uninterrupted screening and you might then wish to go through the short film using the pause button. All members of the group must speak and the presentation (after the screening) should last for no longer than 10 minutes, so please make your points succinctly."

Use the CINEMATOGRAPHY worksheet, and these EDITING and SOUND worksheets to help you in your analysis...

Use this as a guide - worksheet

There are a few constraints you need to additionally adhere to.

1) You must pick one from each of the three categories in this document - LINK HERE

2) Try to keep the short between 3 to 7 minutes - if it's longer you may run out of time.
