Film Theatre Review Writing Process
Watch
Research - Who is the director? What has been said about the show? Key Performers?
Analyse- What is your understanding of it ? Make notes. Discuss with others. Zoom in on a particular bit you particularly liked or disliked and explain why.
Draft an outline of the review.
Examples and Evidence - to back up your opinion
Consider how the work stands out- what is the wider importance or message.
Structure
Introduction - title, release date, background info, very short summary (1 sentence)
Analysis of plot
Creative elements- dialogues, characters, colour, camera techniques, costume, mood, symbols. Do they contribute or take away from the plot.
Opinions- yours, audience, critics
Conclusion- was the film maker successful in their purpose. Will you use these ideas in the future?
