Students taking the class for a grade will receive a course grade based on completing the homework assignments, turning in their tracking sheets for the full film watches, writing their three short film scripts, and completing the three larger projects during the course.Calificación
Students can "opt out" of receiving a grade and don't need to complete any of the homework assignments. It is recommended that they watch the full films and mentally answer the questions on the tracking sheets to get the full benefit of the course.Experiencia de clase

Additionally, students are introduced to basic script formatting, writing, and “pitching.” Focus includes the development of techniques for analysis in shot composition, story structure mapping, appreciation of silent and scored films, and character development through the visual medium of film. Students begin to analyze works of cinema, research film history and genres, and create original scripts using techniques studied in class. There are NO live meetings for this course. There will be weekly posts in the classroom each week which will include: video lessons (between one hour to an hour and half for each week), links to outside resources, homework assignments, movie watch assignments, and discussion prompts. Learners may log in and watch the lessons at their own convenience during the week. Introduction to Film will be taught as a US high school (secondary school) elective, but you don't have to be taking it as an elective or for a grade to enjoy the class. Between class time and homework the students will do the required 60 hours of work to use this class as a semester length elective.
