Full Description
This exam examines the concept of time within film narratives, focusing on how chronology, temporal shifts, and flashbacks shape storytelling techniques.
Interrogating temporal dynamics is essential for understanding how filmmakers manipulate time to create tension, reveal character details, and influence audience engagement. This knowledge is crucial in both theoretical discourse and practical film critique.
Assessment will evaluate the student's verbal comprehension of temporal constructs in film narratives. Candidates are expected to articulate examples of films that effectively employ these strategies.
Preparation should entail a critical review of narrative theories and a selection of films showcasing diverse temporal approaches.
