Please continue watching the film adaptation of the Shakespeare play Titus Andronicus. Information about the film was provided to you on the handout.
While we're not exactly ready to discuss the finer elements of film, Julie Taymor's film is an effective visual work.
Notice what the camera is doing while watching the film. The camera provides POV in a film and conveys meaning, both literally and symbolically. As you watch look out for examples of:
Motifs
Frequency
Synechdoche
Listen to how TONE is created by the use of diegetic and non-diegetic sound elements. As you watch, also keep in mind the key themes and development of plot and characters Shakespeare uses in this play.
HOMEWORK: None. Keep writing your play projects! (See post below for help on developing character, plot, or theme)
