What conclusions can you draw from the resurgence of 3D in the 21st Century cinema?
Analyse arguments/opinions on their use of most successful films research last week
Case study - Guardians of the galaxy, American sniper, hunger games catching fire
Arguments for B/A response
The studio's view (The Avatar effect/Megaupload, falling cinema attendance)
The critic's view (Mark Kermode/Dredd 3D/Avatar/Internet Piracy)
The director's view (Scorcese/Scott/del Toro/Cameron) “Wedded to the Medium”
Recap arguments/resources
- Cinematography & 3D - why???
- A History of 3D
- Directors on 3D
- Kermode: 2D or not 2D? Arguments
- Resurgence of 3D - pressed in us?
Use the exemplars to plan your responses to the essay question, remember - because this happened, this happened...
Use the contexts to structure your paragraphs...
Technological - 3D, CGI
Social - audience and online, preference for blockbusters or a desire for quality/narrative, indie like hunger games popular?
Economic - 3D ticket prices, box office takings and film flop formula?
Historical - 3D not new, always when cinema attendance low (TV, VHS, now internet)
