Critique task

Design task
- We have to plan a scene or two based on a certain director/auteur's style


Critique task
- We are to create a oral presentation task that explores a director who has a signature style that is representative of the styles and conventions of auteur theory
- Many directors work is considered iconic or stylised- W by that doesn't necessarily make them an auteur
- Our task conveys why our director is an auteur based on our explanations of the style
- We need about 2-3 videos 20/30 seconds just to enhance our overall presentation
- We can have other video sequences without sound that play as well.
Our presentation should examine directors
- techniques
- signature style
- reoccurring themes
- plot devices
- symbolic codes or motif
- We need to answer all of these

- While many directors are considered iconic or highly stylised there is still lots of debate about what is and isn't an auteur
