A2 FM3: Small Scale Research Project Coursework

SUMMER PREPARATION - RESEARCH

In preparation for September it is crucial you all start preparing for your coursework unit FM3: Small Scale Research project.  The areas for study criteria are listed below and you will need to choose a specific research area which fits into one of these:

• Genre
• Auteur
• Social, political and cultural studies
• Gender issues
• Ethnicity
• Star/ Performer
• Institution
• Technology

An excellent starting point is to think of some of your favourite films and think of the reasons why.  For example, you might choose 'Aliens' and your reason for you liking this film could be the representation of a strong female character.  You would then need to tailor a research statement from this interest.


You will need to complete an FM3 submission form for your research by Tuesday 9th September for me to submit for the examination board's deadline.
