Film Studies - A Level

Course summary

Film Studies is an exploration of a wide variety of films across time and style, and helps broaden knowledge and understanding of the range of responses films can generate. There are opportunities to study mainstream and independent British and American films from the past and present, as well as more recent global films, both in English and non-English languages. The theoretical knowledge and understanding of film will be assessed in exam components and applied to practical non-exam assessment of either a short film or pre-production work.
