What's included
1 live meeting
50 mins in-class hours per weekHomework
Optional homework includes watching a movie by the director we will be discussing that class. Class 1: Ron Howard's Willow, or Apollo 13. Class2: Garry Marshall's Overboard or The Princess Diaries. Class 3 & 4:Steven Spielberg's E.T. The Extraterrestrial, or Raiders of The Lost Ark.Class Experience
In each class, we will cover the work of one director. For example: July 1: Steven Spielberg Early Career July 8: Steven Spielberg Later Career July 15: Ron Howard July 22: George Lucas Aug 5: John Hughes Aug 12: Penny Marshall Sep 2: Amy Heckerling We will start with a little history about the life of the director we are looking at that week. How are they different and how are they the same as the other directors we will be looking at? Then we will watch a clip from a movie they directed. Then have discussion time about their craft, and the movie itself. I am patient and upbeat in my teaching. The learners will interact with me through question and answers. There is no required knowledge, but they will be asked to watch a movie by that class' director before class if possible. Because this class is ongoing, we may spend more than 1 class on Steven Spielberg, depending on student interest.
Learning Goals
Students will gain an appreciation for the work of Ron Howard, Garry Marshall and Steven Spielberg.They should gain a basic knowledge of each director's style, what a director does, and how these directors got their start.Other Details
Parental Guidance
The movies we are watching and discussing are in the PG or PG 13 range, but parents are encouraged to watch the movies themselves to make sure they are comfortable with their learner watching scenes from or commenting about PG 13 movies by these directors. There may be some incidental language even in PG movies, that parents may not wish for their student to hear. We will NOT be watching Rated R films by these directors. Please contact me if you have any questions concerning what we will be viewing.
