I'm working on a illustrations question and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.

Using your Film Glossary, the weblink How to Analyze a Film and the document Anatomy of a Scene provided under Resources, Spike Lee: That's My Story and I'm Sticking To It, and the youtube videos found on Sakai under Resources Film Making Basics and Film Techniques and the youtube clips below, choose ONE Spike Lee film to analyze and discuss its cinematography. 5-7 pages required

Include an assess how the director employs various film and camera techniques to enhance and effectively tell the film's story. Reference at least twenty (20) terms from the Film Glossary in your breakdown of various camera techniques and angle shots, lighting, mise en scene, etc. Be sure to include any camera techniques, cinematography, and sound design choices that are unique to that specific director.

Also, do not neglect to include discussion of how historical, social, political, cultural, and economic issues are referenced cinematically in the chosen film. Use the document Anatomy of a Scene under Resources as a guide.

Include jpeg images, screenshots (in a separate attachment, not embedded in the paper) or time stops from the film to demonstrate the specific camera angles, lighting, setting or scenes you are referencing.

Here is a youtube video that breakdowns aspects of Lee's style of filmmaking…You Know it's Spike Lee If

You will be graded on the number of film terms you correctly identify in your paper. Do not count multiple mentions of the same film term. In other words when analyzing two different scenes and you correctly note the director's use of a close up shot each time, the term "close up shot" will be counted as 1/20 terms identified, not 2/20 terms

You will also be graded on the number of scenes you analyze in your paper. 5 thoroughly analyzed scenes should suffice. Be sure to choose scenes with meaningful subtext and discuss how historical, social, political, cultural, and economic issues are referenced cinematically and where it fits in the larger context of the chosen film; s this is the final component that you will be graded on.
