Reflection

Remind students that some rules of notice apply across multiple media forms (such as camera distance angle, which can be used in TV, film, video and comics) while others are only found in some (such as camera movement, which cannot be used in static media like comics.)

Have students reflect, orally, in writing or using a social learning platform, on the following questions:

How did learning the rules of notice of film help them understand or make predictions about a media work?

How successful do they feel they were in applying what they learned about rules of notice to analyzing the shots and scenes they studied? What might they do differently next time?

How might they apply the rules of notice they learned about in this lesson to work they do in other media?

 

If you delivered the storyboard or short film activities:

How did their understanding of rules of notice, and of media forms, help them develop and organize their ideas for those projects?

What tools did they find most useful in developing the storyboard and/or film? What about each stage of the process stands out to them as most important?

What might they do differently the next time they plan and create a media work?

 

(See Alternativeto.net for possible social learning tools. Confirm with your school or school board that the tool has been approved for classroom use.)
