Metropolis & Film Project

Metropolis assistance (when writing your paper)
--Metropolis (history & analysis)

Missed any of the film? Or need to study a certain scene? Look here! (Metropolis - Complete Film)

After watching Metropolis, please upload or begin working on your intertitles for your film project.

Before you leave today, make sure you have met with your group members and deciding on a filming schedule. Your film should be shot (completely) by Monday, April 4. Upload film files as soon as you can so that your chosen editor can begin working.

Extra Credit (until 5/06/2011): You may watch and analyze Fritz Lang's movie "M". Here's the film. Your paper should be 3-5 pages double-spaced and include appropriate film criticism (see how to do this from the links to your right).

HOMEWORK: Please read the chapter "The Movies Learn to Speak" and take notes about the beginning of sound in film.
