Duration

Short (1-4 activities)

In this range of resources, Film Studies teachers will find activities specifically designed to introduce set texts to their learners. Focusing on key areas from the exam specifications, students will be introduced to ideas about the film, analysing selected sequences and looking at film stills. Teachers are encouraged to use these activities before, and immediately after, screening the entire film. The final slides of the PowerPoint offer extension activities and ideas about how to continue your study of this film. 

 

In this PowerPoint, which introduces Vertigo, students will research the context of Old Hollywood and consider Alfred Hitchcock's role as an auteur director. They will investigate Hitchcock's treatment of women and reflect upon Andrew Sarris's ideas about technical competence.

Updating our resources

We have developed a large catalogue of educational resources since launching in 2013, and some references and terminology will inevitably have dated as society and language evolves. We are aware of this and will be updating resources when our production schedule allows.

What our educators say

"I think that our work on ‘The Girl and the Fox’ has really benefitted our children. I would thoroughly recommend the Into Film approach to any school wanting to improve attainment in literacy."
