Film Studies is a lively and exciting course that is designed to introduce you to some of the key concepts that underpin the study of films. You will study a wide variety of films on the course, broadening your knowledge and appreciation of films and different styles and genres of film, including mainstream and independent American and British films from the past and the present, as well as more recent examples of world cinema. This course will allow you to develop your knowledge and understanding of the range of meanings and responses films can generate and will allow you to answer the question, why are films so important to audiences?
You will need 5 GCSEs at grade 9-4, including English language and Maths to be accepted onto this course. You will also be required to complete a GCSE to A Level Transition Project prior to enrolment, to prepare you for A Level Film Studies.
This is a two-year A Level where you are examined on the whole syllabus at the end of the second year. You will be assessed through two exams at the end of Year 2, both worth 35%, and a production-based component worth 30% that centers on screenwriting. To prepare you for external exams, you will carry out a program of weekly tests, exam-style assessments, and Formal Progress Points that will monitor your attendance, how hard you are working, and your academic progress. You will progress through a Year 1 Gateway that will allow you to progress to Year 2.
