Task 2: using your production work, identify specific examples that demonstrate your 4 theories. Use Popplet to mind map your examples
Students target C. Examine own trailers for theory (Connote - this means, this suggests, it could be argued...")
Apply your theory in your teams and present - how does the content of your trailer exemplify (demonstrate) this idea about genre
Point - how your trailer demonstrates this theory
Example - the conventions of your horror trailer's
Explaination - ?
Student target B. Explain the meaning and purpose of following/breaking conventions
What meaning does the theory reveal or add to your work - what is your work 'saying'?
Student target A. Justify extent your work conforms to these theories (postmodernism)
How closely does your Horror follow these ideas about genre 'rules', or is it difficult to apply them?
Write a conclusion paragraph
