Homework Reminders

From Lesson 1, homework was to watch an episode of a drama of your choice and make brief notes on the points listed on the sheet given out.

From Lesson 2, homework was read the camera shots information sheet, then watch a short scene of a drama of your choice (doesn't have to be a whole show) and fill in the camera shots sheet. Remember: Denotation is what is literally being shown - e.g. a medium shot of two people talking. Connotation is if the shot gives a hidden meaning to what is happening - e.g. a high angle of two 'hoodies' walking down an alley could give the impression of security camera footage, making them seem sinister, even if it not mentioned in the plot.
