Class experience
Note: This is an ongoing class. Currently there are 25 classes (one per week) before the class begins to repeat with the first topic again. Additional classes may be added in the future but for the moment there are 25 classes. After the 25th class, the class will circle back and begin again. Tuesday January 3rd: Vampires! We will discuss the origins of the vampire in literature and watch segments from the 1931, 1992 versions of Bram Stokers "Dracula" We will talk about Bela Lugosi,...
This is an Arts and English class. We are exploring the art of filmmaking as well as looking into the literature behind the film or in some cases the literature that has inspired the making of the film in question. The Horror genre crosses over with drama, science fiction, fantasy, mystery, and other film types making it a very versatile subject in which to study many aspects of film making.
I hold a Masters Degree in English and Literature with a specialty in Gothic Literature. I wrote my masters thesis over Edgar Allan Poe and his Feminine Ideal. I have experience teaching Gothic Literature in public school and online. I minored in Psychology and I have studied film history including Film Noir as well as Classic Horror in both my undergraduate and graduate school programs.
Homework Offered
Assessments Offered
A letter grade and a percentage grade can be assessed from the essay writing. We will play a trivia game via the Gimkit educational platform every 5th class to test students knowledge of the subject matter. Please let me know if you require a final English grade for any portion or for every class of the course should your learner complete all 20 topics.Grades Offered
No supplies are needed. I do require essays to be written on computer or the equivalent such as on a tablet or a smartphone.
This is a Monsters and Horror in film glass. The subject material can be horrific. I take great pains to exclude all bad language and graphic depictions of anything questionable, but there will be nightmarish images occasionally (i.e. Monsters) . The more graphic or gory films, I stick to the "approved for all audiences" movie trailers, and do not show any additional clips from those films. We do use Gimkit and clips and movie trailers are shown via YouTube. I control all external resources so learners do not have to have any accounts or download any applications. YouTube is only used by me via the screen share feature of Zoom.
Source material for the class comes from the Universal Classic Monsters films, Hammer films, Alfred Hitchcock films, and several documentaries covering the Horror genre. Source material also comes from books and novels (where one exists) such as Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein" and Brom Stoker's "Dracula" etc.
