Film Studies

Course summary

The Film Studies A Level course comprises the close study of a wide range of film texts, together with a component of practical coursework. Successful candidates enjoy engaging in close textual analysis, discussing new ideas and debating theory. They also enjoy the creative process, creating their own scripts, storyboards and films. A high grade in English Language or Literature GCSE is desirable as this is primarily an essay‐based subject. Pupils do not need prior practical film-making experience.
