InstructionsWatching the film

For this assignment, you practice how to watch a film carefully with a critical eye by taking notes on it. Complete the notes and upload them. This assignment does not need to written in essay format, so you can use bullet points to arrange the notes. 

Watch this clip from Alfred Hitchcock’s Vertigo (Clip 2/11) (1958). Watch the clip critically, just as you would an entire film:

• 1. Give the clip your undivided attention at least once. Pay close attention to details and make observations that might start leading to bigger questions.
• 2. Watch the clip a second time. For this viewing, you will want to focus specifically on those elements of film analysis that your class has focused on, so review your course notes. For example, from whose perspective is this clip shot? What choices help convey that perspective? What is the overall tone, theme, or effect of this clip?
• 3. Take notes while you watch for the second time and include time stamps for them. Timestamps are vital for citing scenes from a film!

Your assignment must be submitted as a .doc or .docx attachment. Also, name your file correctly (your Last Name and brief description of assignment: e.g., Johnson, WN 1.1.docx)
